INSPECTOR-GENERAL OF POLICE, EGBETOKUN PLEDGES MORE ROLES FOR POLICE WOMEN.

The Inspector-General of Police, KAYODE EGBETOKUN, has promised to ensure larger representation of women police officers in strategic, operational, and command roles.

He highlighted that the celebration was a legacy born in 1955, that began quietly and had grown into one of the strongest voices in Nigerian security history, while emphasizing that the journey of the women officers is a reflection on the resilience, adaptability, and unwavering commitment of Nigerian women to national service.
