Chairman of the Police Service Commission, Mike Okiro, has revealed why
the immediate past Inspector General of Police, Suleiman Abba was fired
by President Jonathan on May 21st. Mr Okiro gave the reason while
speaking with newsmen after the Council of State meeting where the new
IGP Solomon Arase was confirmed as a substantive IGP yesterday May 12th
“I’m not part of the Presidency that removed him, so I cannot give
adequate answer. Though at the meeting President Jonathan tried to
explain to members, based on the question raised by one of the governors
that Nigerians may want to know why the former IGP was removed. The
President, who was very brief in his response said, during the period of
the former IGP, a lot of indiscipline was noticed among the Police rank
and file and as such he felt that a new IG should come and try his
luck. That is what he said, though I cannot give details of that" he
said
