Two supplemental officers are suspended by the police for acting improperly and violating the social media policy
IGP Usman Alkali Baba, psc(+), NPM, fdc, has issued a strong warning on the persistent, unlawful, and unjustified usage of police uniforms, which are only permitted for genuine serving members of the Nigerian Police force. A viral video posted by one of the officers on August 3, 2022, shows the Inspector-General of Police suspending two Supernumerary Police Officers with immediate effect for violating the Police Act of 2020 and The Nigeria Police Guidelines for Recruitment, Promotion, and Discipline of Supernumerary Police (SPY) 2013.
The Supernumerary Police was created solely to supplement the services of regular Police Officers when needed by Ministries, Departments and Agencies/Multi-National Companies, and Banks who make requests and, upon approval, pay for their training and cover their emoluments for the period of their engagement. The Supernumerary Police was created by the combined effects of the Police Act, 2020 and the Nigeria Police Guidelines for Recruitment, Promotion, and Discipline of Supernumerary Police (SPY), 2013. (Sections 21–24 of the 2020 Police Act).
Contrary to the rules governing the SPY service, the suspended supernumerary officers Obaze Blessing (SPY number 5709) and Obaze Emmanuella Uju (SPY number 5708) decked themselves up in traditional police clothes.
