Northern Youth Association of Nigeria has said that it is solidly behind the Inspector General of Police, IGP Kayode Egbetokun for rejecting what he described as faulty processes of constable recruitment into the Nigeria Police.
The association explained that itself was even aware of the alleged irregularities and corruption perpetuated by the assigned committee to conduct citizens constable recruitment into the Force, arguing that recruitment into security services must be done in the proper way.
The association led by its National President, Comrade Godiya T Adams in a press statement made available to journalists in Bauchi Tuesday, therefore called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to disregard the call by what it described as unpatriotic individuals for the sack of IGP Egbetokun.
"Our attention has in recent days been drawn to news making rounds of a group of unpatriotic and disgruntled individuals asking President Tinubu for the sack of the IGP.
"We want to state without equivocation, fear or favour, that such actions are not only malicious but selfish and self centered".
Comrade Adams said, "We are hereby calling on our father, the President and Commander in Chief to disregard such action and to even call such individuals to order as their actions undermines the effort of the IGP to bring the Nigerian Police to global reckoning".
Adams further explained that there have been positive developments with the Nigerian Police under the stewardship of IGP Kayode Egbetokun and Nigerians are very happy with the way the Police have been conducting themselves in the discharge of their duties.
The association then urged the IGP to remain focused on giving Nigerians the best police/citizens relationship as these individuals might stop at nothing to tarnish his hard earned reputation as the Nigeria Police Chief of impeccable antecedents.
"We call on Mr President to constitute a panel of investigation that will properly look into these allegations of misconduct and corruption that had marred the constable recruitment process into the Nigeria Police Force and bring defaulters to book. We cannot sit back and watch some few selfish individuals dashing our renewed hope".
Comrade Godiya T Adams also expressed delight that Nigeria is on track to greatness under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and assured that they would kick against anyone or group truncating the progress and laudable achievements of the present administration.
