Barely an hour after the newly appointed Acting Inspector -General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba was decorated with the rank of Inspector General of Police at the State House, Abuja, by Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo on Wednesday, the Ag. IGP. proceeded to the Police Finance House, temporarily accommodating the Nigeria Police Trust Fund.

Ag IGP. Usman Baba paid a visit on the Executive Secretary of the Nigeria Police Trust Fund, Hon.

In a press statement by the Fund’s Public Relations Officer, Okuwobi Olabisi stated that, “He said “The Police Trust Fund is my first port of call after being decorated as the new Acting Inspector-General of Nigeria Police Force to let you and members of the Nigeria Police know that the intervention of NPTF is highly needed and expected at this crucial time” He went on to say that ” …the mission of the Trust Fund targeted at having a well-trained, well-equipped and highly-motivated Police Force will be supported by my administration with unwavering cooperation.”

He went on to assure the Acting Inspector-General of Police of his administration’s commitment to the mandate of the NPTF.

‘We at NPTF promise to work assiduously to deliver on the Fund’s mandate to the Nigeria Police” He assured.
