The Inspector General of Police, Mr Solomon Arase has on Tuesday, May 2nd unveiled the new Supernumerary Police Uniform. This was done at the launching event which took place in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
Mr Arase who spoke at the event said…
“The concept of Supernumerary Police draws from Sec. 18 of the Nigeria Police Act which provides guidelines for their establishment and also grants them the powers, privileges and immunities of police officers, but as limited to area in respect of which they are appointed and in any police area adjacent thereto, but not elsewhere. In essence, therefore, SPY Police are engaged for specific security functions within a restricted jurisdiction or operational space.”
