The commission took notice of the Public Service Rules 020701, 020702, 020703 and 160304 which prescribed examinations as one of the conditions for promotions in the public service and approved that henceforth, promotion examinations will be a pre-requisite for promotions in the police force.

LEADERSHIP Weekend recalls that this has been the major issue of discord between the Nigeria Police Force and the PSC for a long time now.

The PSC also promoted 417 senior police officers, including two deputy inspector-general of police among others.

Spokesman of the PSC, Ikechukwu Ani, said these were the highpoints of the 15th plenary meeting of the commission held in Abuja presided over by Justice Clara Bata Ogunbiyi, JSC (rtd), the acting chairman of the commission.
