NANS Speak On Increment Of Police Salary
The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has expressed hope that the recent increase in the salaries of police personnel by the Federal Government would help check corruption in the organisation.
Naija News recalls that the President, Muhammadu Buhari recently approved the Police Rank Salary Structure Adjustment, by which salary, allowances and pension of policemen will be increased.
NANS National Public Relations’ Officer, Mr Bestman Okereafor, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Enugu today that the move was in the right direction.
He, however, urged the federal government to look at the possibility of insurance cover for police personnel against accidents and sudden death especially those in special units and formations that work on the field day and night.
According to him, no benefit is too much to be given to these gallant officers especially those who carry out their duties with sincerity and dedication.
“NANS wishes to specially commend the federal government especially President Muhammadu Buhari over the decision to upwardly review the monthly salaries of police personnel.
“NANS considers this as a progressive step.
“We have no doubt that the increase in wage will further enhance commitment and dedication in the force.
“NANS is also optimistic that the move will greatly reduce corruption and bribery in the organisation in-line with Buhari’s anti-corruption campaign,’’ he said.
