Nigeria Police Force has described as misleading, a report alleging that police inspectors had not been paid their salaries.

The police also said there channels of procedures or complaints and no personnel had come forward to complain of not receiving salaries.

Force PRO, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said in a statement yesterday that issues of salaries are not handled by the police, as the inspector-general of police is not accountable and responsible for salary disbursements, adding that this responsibility lies with the Integrated Personnel and Payroll Information System (IPPIS) under the Federal Ministry of Finance.

He said, “Our attention has been drawn to publications propagated by a group of journalists, claiming that some police inspectors approached them at their correspondents’ chapel in Uyo to express grievances and protest against the non-payment of their promotion salary increments. over a specified duration. The report is mischievous, unfounded and a calculated attempt to malign the police.

“It is important to emphasise that the Nigeria Police Force operates as a structured and disciplined entity, adhering to established principles and professional standards. Consequently, any grievances raised by members of the force are constantly attended to and channeled to the right authorities for action. The force is taken aback by the referred publication from a group of journalists in Akwa Ibom State labelling private conversations with some police friends as protest, whereas such complaints are unknown to the police authority.

“Furthermore, it is crystal clear that neither the office of the inspector-general of police nor the Nigeria Police Force is accountable and responsible for the salary disbursements; this responsibility lies with the Integrated Personnel and Payroll Information System (IPPIS), under the Federal Ministry of Finance. The reports issued by these journalists are not only distressing but also targeted at tarnishing the reputation of the Police Force or the office of the Inspector-General of Police for reasons best known to them.

“It is, however, fundamental to reiterate that should any policeman have issues with his or her payment of salaries, he should take such up with his box keeper or MSS Officer who liaises with the IPPIS desk officers for rectification. We are convinced that no serving officer of the police in Akwa Ibom State or any part of the country would stage a protest on the non-payment of salary more so that our officers are aware of the process to address such sensitive matters.

“The inspector-general of police, therefore, encourages all personnel with welfare-related concerns to reach out to the appropriate authorities within their respective commands or formations, thereby avoiding any actions that could bring disrepute to the Force. Additionally, journalists are urged to refrain from publishing unfounded and unconfirmed stories that seek to undermine the integrity of the Nigeria Police Force.”
