The federal executive council (FEC) has approved a 20 percent salary increase for officers of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF).

The salary upgrade is to take effect in January 2022.

Maigari Dingyadi, minister of police affairs, disclosed this to state house correspondents on Wednesday after the FEC meeting presided over by President Muhammadu Buhari at the presidential villa in Abuja.

It not just about increasing the salary of this police men by 20% (with this high economic inflation) that's not just enough...the whole salary structure needs to be reviewed... buhari can't be seating there in aso rock doing virtually nothing and be earning millions when our police will be on the street safeguarding our lives and property will be earning as low as 30,000 no!!! That's just not right.

And also we need to improve their armory, most police station don't even have a good working van to attend to emergency situations it an eyesore, I saw pushing police van it just very shameful...we need proactive steps to improve our country's police department not this feeble steps, police needs to be adequately funded if they're to be effective and efficient.

First to comment

Good move

This will definitely boost their morale. One of the notable demands during the #EndSARS protests was to enhance police welfare so that they are not so vicious to fellow citizens.

This doesn't stop them from collecting bribes and charging for bail

Policemen or Police officers? Corporal no be officer, hope you know that. FG should make it very clear that officers and men of the Nigerian Police are to get salary increase to avoid quarrel.

Congrats to all oga Olopas

hope it will stop there corruption

I doubt if that will stop their madness

Will that stop them from egunje. I seriously doubt that. Police of today is the direct opposite of the agenda of Mr integrity. Let's see if Buhari will even increase it. Nobody trusts this man again

ENDSARS


I hope they can increase minimum wage, person no fit refill cooking gas. Na stove people go back to dey use. Really Sad

Would it stop the criminals from extorting us?

Damn Niggar!!!!

Won't still stop them from extortion

Nice move by the federal government but for what they do and the role they play in the society, I think 20% is still too small, a constable last I checked collects an average of 45k monthly, no quality barracks, no extra stimulus nothing

B

Nice one

20% increase of bigger pot belly ......

Road access fee will now jump from N50 to N100.

thief na thief

All security agencies will equally benefit from similar increment especially the Armed forces. FG can never increase Police salary without doing same for all security agencies
