Mbu to police officers - 'Never allow politicians intimidate you'


The Commandant, Police Staff College, Jos, Mr Joseph Mbu, has advised police officers to remain bold and never allow anyone to harass or intimidate them.

Mbu made this known when he addressed Deputy and Assistant Commissioners of Police, who had completed the Strategic Leadership Command Course 2 in Jos on Friday.

“You must read your police laws and know your powers; you must ensure that you do not abuse such powers.

“Once you know those laws, be guided by them and carry out your duties diligently without any fear; never allow anyone, especially politicians, to cajole, harass or intimidate you.’’

Mbu described the police job as a “very difficult one’’, saying that it should be treated like an egg that would break if held too tightly, but would equally fall, if held too lightly.

He advised the officers to behave like senior officers, pointing out that they would be treated like junior officers if they behaved like hapless junior men.

The commandant harped on the need for hard work and integrity, saying that their service would be a “total nullity” if it was done without integrity decency, respect and discipline.
