“Commissioned officers from the rank of ASP to CSP will also be promoted but we are starting with the rank and file who are our dedicated foot soldiers.

“As for what is happening in the South East and North Central (Bandits and ESN attacks and killings), the IGP said, “We are doing something to change the narrative to ensure that citizens live peacefully.
