The Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, has cautioned his men against the use of brute force in the discharge of their duties, noting that modern policing required intellect, respect for exta

nt laws, civility to citizens, knowledge, and sound professional judgement.

Speaking while decorating 13 newly promoted Assistant Inspectors-General of Police at the Force headquarters in Abuja on Wednesday, Adamu said his administration inherited some security threats including banditry, kidnapping, armed robbery, cybercrime and cultism, which he said were being addressed. “In order to sustain this achievement, some of you, the newly promoted officers, shall be deployed to critical policing posts where your strength of character and professionalism shall be optimally tested,” he said.

The IG further told the newly decorated AIGs that Nigerians would be looking up to them to exhibit the sterling qualities which informed their elevation as they assumed the responsibilities attached to their new career status.
