I’ll ensure election is free, credible and fair, says IGP

Akin Olayemi

New Inspector General of Police (IGP) Mohammed Adamu has promised Nigerians that he will ensure that February elections are free and fair.

He made the promise following the fear expressed by the opposition political parties that the police could be complicit in the rigging of the general elections.

Addressing reporters at State House, Abuja, following his decoration by President Muhammadu Buhari, Adamu promised to ensure the elections are credible.

“We are professionals. We are going to stick by the rules. We are going to do the right thing. We will not go outside the ethics of our job to do things that are untoward. Everybody will be given a level-playing ground to play his or her politics,” he said.
