Retired Police Officers Task PSC On Court Order

Police Service Commission (PSC) have been tasked by some retired police officers to obey the judgment of the national industrial court, which ordered their reinstatement.

The officers, through their lawyer, Adeleke Agbola, instituted contempt proceedings against the PSC and the inspector-general of police (IGP), over the “non-compliance” to the 2022 court order.

In 2021, officers from courses 33, 34, and 35 were retired by the police authorities over claims that they had spent the mandatory 35 years in service.

The affected officers led by Egong Egwu Egong, Omeh Felix Okechukwu, Paul Obot Umoh, and Galadima Bello, instituted a suit at the national industrial court against the PSC, IGP, and the force secretary, who are first to third defendants, respectively.

In April 2022, the court nullified the “forceful” retirement of the affected officers and ruled that their first appointment dates should be the date they entered the police academy, not when enlisted as recruit constables.

The court ordered the following first appointment dates for the affected officers: course 33 – June 10, 1994; course 34 – August 6, 1996; and course 35 – May 1, 2000.

The court also directed the police authorities to pay the affected officers their full entitlements.

Since 2022, the police authorities have not fully implemented the order of the court relating to the reinstatement of the affected officers.

Aggrieved by the non-implement, the affected officers filed a contempt proceedings against PSC and IGP
