What APC wants to do with police redeployment of 37CPs - PDP, CUPP reveal in new allegations

- The recent massive redeployment of some police commissioners has been criticized by both the PDP and CUPP

- Both opposition parties are alleging that the move by the police is a ploy from the APC to rig the coming elections

- However, the APC, in its reply said that it is too busy with its presidential campaign, adding that the allegations are baseless and laughable

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has reacted to the Police Service Commission (PSC)'s approval of the redeployment of 37 commissioners in the force throughout the federation.

The opposition party referred to the move as a tactics by the All Progressives Congress (APC)-led federal government to manipulate and rig the forthcoming general elections, Punch reports.

Supporting PDP's claim, the Coalition of United Political Parties (CUPP) through its spokesman, Imo Ugochinyere, on Wednesday, February 6, alleged that the police authority had asked some APC leaders to name the commissioners, area commanders, divisional police officers, SARS commanders, Rapid Response Squad Commanders and MOPOL commanders they wanted in their states.

Ugochinyere claimed: “The manipulation includes asking selected and designated leaders of the APC to choose the officers that will work with them. Unfortunately, the acting Inspector-General of Police (Mohammed Adamu) has succumbed to their ploy and is now taking instructions from a political party on police postings.

“The Presidency has deliberately kept him in an acting capacity to use his confirmation as a bait to get him to do their bidding. He is now completely at their beck and call and their usual line to him are, ‘we will talk to the President about your confirmation, that you really helped us.’

“The entire security architecture of the elections has been put in grave danger and the people given the responsibility to provide security for lives and property are the same set of people jeopardising the security of the country.”

The CUPP's spokesman equated the redeployment as an invitation to a bloody electoral crisis, adding that the postings should be reversed immediately.

Ugochinyere said: “The acting IG is set to among other politically tainted postings announce the appointment of a Deputy Commissioner of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, a former CSO to Bola Tinubu, as the Kwara State CP.

“The APC wants to post Egbetokun to Kwara to ensure that votes do not count in the state and that Senator Bukola Saraki and the PDP must not win in Kwara even if the people vote for them.

“Where all the manipulated postings are not reversed, our resolution is that the Nigerian opposition will not be at the peace accord signing to validate and grant legitimacy to the grand violence module and rigging design of the APC.”

Added to this, Kola Ologbondiyan, the PDP's national publicity secretary, has alleged that Egbetokun has been instructed to create confusion in Kwara, so that the APC can rig the polls.

Ologbondiyan said: “Nigerians are aware of how Egbetokun was posted to Lagos State by the former IG, Idris Ibrahim, to serve the same partisan interest and how that posting was stopped by the new IGP. Now, he is being redeployed to Kwara State for the same ignoble plot.

“The deployment of Kayode Egbetokun as the Kwara State CP directly negates the principle of the peace accord and can only hurt the fragile peace that currently exists in the state.”

However, on its part, the APC, through its national publicity secretary, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu, in a recent statement referred to PDP's and CUPP's allegations as both laughable and groundless.

Issa-Onilu said that the ruling party cannot copy the PDP's template of corruption and that the APC is too busy with its presidential campaigns throughout the country.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng reported that the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Adamu Mohammed, on Monday, February 4, decorated newly promoted senior officers of the law enforcement agency including seven Deputy Inspectors General of Police (DIGs) with their new ranks.

It was learnt that the decorated officers were immediately inducted into the Force Management Team (FMT) of the Nigeria police.
