Alhaji Ibrahim Kpotun-Idris, a former Inspector-General of Police (I-G), has advised the newly-appointed Commissioner of Police, Lagos state command, Mr Moshood Jimoh, to exercise a high degree of professionalism in the discharge of his duties.
Kpotun-Idris gave the task while felicitating with Jimoh on his appointment by the incumbent I-GP Kayode Egbetokun, in Bida, Niger state, Wednesday.
The ex-police chief enjoined the Jimoh not to disappoint the Police Service Commission and his bosses.
He expressed optimism that Jimoh’s leadership would enhance law enforcement strategies and improve public trust in the police.
Kpotun-Idris urged Jimoh to bring his wealth of experience to take the Lagos command to greater heights.
Kpotun-Idris described the new police commissioner’s role as recognition of his dedication to the Nigeria Police Force.
He recalled that Jimoh had diligently held reputable positions, including CP Communications Operations, Force Headquarters, Force Public Relations Officer, and CP Eastern Port, Rivers state.
“CP Jimoh’s extensive background in communications, administration and public relations, combined with his operational expertise, makes him uniquely qualified to head the Lagos command.”
The former IGP said Jimoh’s training in counterterrorism, maritime security, and crisis management, locally and internationally, demonstrate his competence.
“His impressive credentials, including his tenure as Force Public Relations Officer and Deputy Commissioner of Investigation, prove his competency in ensuring peaceful coexistence amongst the people of Lagos State and indeed Nigerians.
“I wish him all the best in his new role, and I’m confident that he will work tirelessly to maintain law and order in Lagos State.
“CP Jimoh’s experience and expertise can bring about positive changes to Lagos State’s security and policing,” Kpotun-Idris said.
