The President, who assured that the Federal Government was fully committed to improving the livelihood of serving officers, said the government was also focused on ensuring that police officers, who served the nation meritoriously, were resettled into retirement, with some financial support.
“Taking your services to the doorstep of police officers by maintaining an office in each Police Command and Formation is also very laudable. At this juncture, I urge you to continue your untiring efforts in collaborating with the Police authorities towards improving the welfare of both serving and retired personnel of the Nigeria Police Force,” he added.
He urged National Pension Commission, police authorities and the Nigeria Police Force Pensions Limited to maintain their concerted efforts toward achieving improved welfare for police personnel.
