He said the Commission will soon zero-in on the quality of people recruited into the Force, stressing that one of the problems of the Nigeria Police has been that of poor quality of intakes and the poor condition of where they are trained.
Mr. Osayande said the Commission will now be interested in those who enter the Force and will also be interested in how they are trained. He noted that there is the need for massive injection of funds into the Police Force especially in the area of training, stressing that the nation's Police Colleges have remained inadequate and in a terribly poor state.
Mrs. Waziri had earlier commended the new board of the Police Commission headed by Mr. Osayande for its far reaching innovative decisions aimed at repositioning of the Nigeria Police.
She saw the recent approval by the Police Commission for the promotion of deserving Police Officers as a commendable intervention that will surely raise the morale of the Officers.
