Following the directive of the Inspector General of Police, IGP Alkali Baba Usman Psc+, fdc, NPM, the Commissioner of Police Delta State Police Command, CP Ari Muhammad Ali FCIA, PSC+ had an interactive session with officers and men of the Command on 23rd March 2022.
During the session, the CP raised the issue of the fake strike action notice that has since gone viral, noting that we all have a stake to nip it in the bud. He said that the police is a regimented organization with laid down rules and regulations guiding its operations and that there are procedures to address grievances and strike action is certainly not a part of it.
The CP informed them of the IGP’S mission and vision to reposition the Force and urged them to do all it takes to key into the IGP’s vision and support him. He noted that the IGP has promised to implement the new salary scheme and also ordered the removal of tax from Police salaries. He stated that 40% increment on rent allowances and 20% increment on risk allowances has been approved and it’s with immediate effect.
The CP during the interactive session, said that this current administration headed by IGP Usman Alkali Baba has ensured that promotions across all ranks is done as at when due and will be sustained.
The CP said that the IGP has assured officers and men of massive distribution of equipments and kits particularly to members of the rank and files.

In addition to all the IGP has been doing to reposition the force, the CP also noted that modern Police Stations are currently being built all over the federation, Delta State inclusive and also renovations are going on in some barracks even at the Force Headquarters Abuja.
Finally, the CP urged all officers and men to go on with their normal duties while assuring them of the IGP’s commitment to their welfare and as such it will be unwise and unfair to embark on any strike action.
Officers and men in response to the CP, echoed their support and assured the IGP and the CP of thier commitment to service, noting that they will not be part of any strike action or any other act that will bring the good name of the force and the Command into disrepute.
