He said those who could not benefit from the exercise should not lose hope as the authorities are already aware of the need to clear the backlogs of promotion which the Commandant-General had made a cardinal point of his welfare policy in the Service.
Five officers were promoted from Assistant Commandant to Deputy Commandant in the FCT Command, while over 20 officers were promoted from Chief Superintendents of the Corps to Assistant Commandants.
