BREAKING: PSC Bows To Pressure, Removes Naja’atu From Election Duty

Najaatu

Hajiya Naja’atu Mohammed, the former Director of the Civil Society Directorate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council, has been replaced as one of the coordinators who will oversee the conduct of police officers during the general forthcoming elections by the Police Service Commission.

Her removal came just five hours after the ruling APC objected to her inclusion among the 45 coordinators tasked with overseeing the conduct of police officers on election duty.

The Commission had assigned Muhammad as one of the coordinators who would supervise the conduct of police officers’ affairs, but the Director Public Affairs and Spokesman of the APC campaign council, Festus Keyamo, in a statement on Monday, said she should be withdrawn immediately.

The appointment is “callous, insensitive, openly confrontational, and consequently unacceptable by the Tinubu/Shettima Presidential Campaign Council,” according to Keyamo.

However, the commission quickly bowed to pressure, stating that it had asked a former Assistant Inspector-General of Police, Bawa Lawal (rtd), who is from the same geopolitical zone as Commissioner Najatu, to take over coordination of the zone’s monitoring of Police Conduct.

Ikechukwu Ani, spokesman of the commission said “the commission will always be sensitive to the wishes of Nigerians and will continue to contribute it’s quota to the sustenance of the nation’s democracy.”

Ani explained, “The Commission wishes to state with all sense of responsibility that its commissioners representing different geopolitical zones have always supervised assignments of the commission in the geopolitical zones they represent. It was the same with the present national assignment.

“It wishes to restate its commitment to a free and fair 2023 elections where the Police as the lead Agency in internal security which includes election policing will discharge it’s duties according to the dictates of the law.”
