Nasarawa State Commissioner of Police (CP) Adesina Soyemi, has decorated 100 newly promoted officers in their new ranks in the state.

Speaking at the occasion in Lafia, the CP commended the Inspector-General of Police, (IGP) Usman Baba-Alkali for recognising the hard work the personnel were doing.

Mr Soyime said the 100 personnel who were from different divisions were promoted to various ranks due to their commitment toward security in the state.

He said one officer was promoted from CSP to Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP), 27 ASP to DSP, 72 Inspectors to ASP respectively.

He explained that police personnel were really doing a lot towards securing the state that is why Nasarawa State is the safest in North-Central.

He said that all those promoted do not have disciplinary issues in their files since they joined the service.

“The IGP recognised the effort we are making that is why the number of promoted officers in Nasarawa State are many.

“Any officer with disciplinary issue in his file cannot be promoted to the next rank,” he added.
