The police in Abia State Police Command says, in order to uphold discipline in the force, it has de-kitted and dismissed one of its Mobile Police officers over unethical conduct.
In a press statement issued on Wednesday and signed by the Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO DSP Maureen Chinaka on behalf of the Commissioner of Police, Danladi Isa, disclosed that the erring officer was dismissed in February.
“The public is hereby notified that Inspector Kufere Moses, formerly serving at Mopol 55 PMF Aba and attached to UBA Bank Guard in Aba, Abia State has been dismissed from the Nigeria Police Force, effective 21st February 2025. He has also been de-kitted, and all police accoutrements have been retrieved from him.
This action follows administrative disciplinary measures taken against him by the command for ‘discreditable conduct and offences against discipline’.
Isa reaffirmed the command’s zero tolerance for unprofessional conduct and assured the public that the command will not condone the activities of bad elements within the force.
“Under my leadership, the command remains committed to the Inspector General of Police’s vision of ensuring a professionally competent, service-driven, rule-of-law-compliant and people-friendly police force”, the CP said.
The offence committed by the officer was however not disclosed.
