The Inspector-General of Police (IG), Mr. Solomon Arase, has directed companies using Supernumerary Police (SPY) nationwide to stop the use of police uniforms for their operations on or before January 1, 2016.
The IG gave this directive on Thursday at a meeting with security managers of companies using SPY Police for their internal security.
A statement by the Force Public Relations Officer, Olabisi Kolawole, the IG noted this measure being part of his administration’s renewed crime fighting strategy, is aimed at curtailing the activities of criminally minded persons who disguise in police uniform to perpetuate their nefarious activities.
However, Arase has approved the use of a newly designed grey and black trouser as the new uniform to be worn by spy police officers nationwide.
