The Chief of Staff to the President, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari, on Monday, decorated four newly promoted police officers serving at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Gambari charged the officers to see their elevation as a call to duty and re-dedication to the service of the country.
The Chief of Staff, who lauded their diligence and commitment to duty, said: ‘‘These promotions and decorations are in recognition of your exemplary service, competence, professionalism and dedication to duty.
‘‘A promotion to a higher rank is to encourage you to do more so that by the time you leave the service, you can look back and see that each step of the way your services have been recognised.
‘‘So do not rest on your oars but rededicate yourselves to the service of the community and the nation,’’ he said.
Prof. Gambari, who was supported by the Permanent Secretary, State House, Tijjani Umar, also praised the wives of the officers for being very supportive, saying ‘‘beside every successful man is a very courageous and supportive woman.’’
The newly promoted officers were Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP), Saleh Hassan Gwani, who is now Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) in-charge of Presidential Vehicular Movement (PVM) and Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Ibrahim Kaware, who is now a Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) and Escort Commander to the Chief of Staff to the President.
Others were ASP Dogonyaro Danjuma and ASP Auwalu Kaware both promoted to DSPs serving at 24 PMF Presidential Escort, State House, Abuja.
