The true position of the matter is that the Aide-De-Camp or any other Police Officer attached to His Excellency, Chief Willie Obiano, Governor of Anambra State was not withdrawn. On Tuesday, 14th November, 2017, the ADC and CSO to the Governor were called to the Police Command Headquarters in Awka to attend IGP\u2019s lecture with all other Police Personnel deployed for the Election,\u00a0 which was also attended by the Heads of other Security and Safety Agencies participating in the security arrangement for the election under the Inter-agency Consultative Committee on Election Security (ICCES) in the State, the ADC and CSO returned few hours later after the lecture, same date, to their duty posts in Government House, Awka, Anambra State.<br \/>\nThough, the Anambra State Police Command had issued a Press Statement to clarify the reasons why the ADC and CSO to the Governor were called to the command headquarters in Awka for the lecture and that they were not withdrawn, it is also pertinent to set the record straight and inform the Public and re-emphasize the fact that the ADC and CSO to the Governor of Anambra State, His Excellency, Chief Willie Obiano were not withdrawn from their duty posts.<br \/>\nFor avoidance of doubt, a total number of Two Hundred and Twenty One (221) Police Officers and Men including the ADC and CSO are currently attached to the Governor of Anambra State, His Excellency, Chief Willie Obiano for his personal and office protection.\u00a0\u00a0<br \/>\nThe breakdown is as follows:<br \/>\ni.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 One (1) ADC (SPO)<br \/>\nii\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 One (1) CSO\u00a0 (SPO)<br \/>\niii.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 One (1) Unit Commander (SPO) from 45 PMF<br \/>\niv.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 One (1) Admin Officer (SPO) to administer the Police Personnel<br \/>\nv.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a043 Personnel of Police Mobile Force (PMF) \u2013 from 29PMF &#038; 54PMF<br \/>\nvi.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 62 Personnel of Police Mobile Force (PMF) \u2013 from 45PMF<br \/>\nvii.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a046 Personnel of Special Protection Unit (SPU)<br \/>\nviii.\u00a0 \u00a0 66 Personnel of Conventional Police Men<br \/>\nTotal: 221<br \/>\nObviously, the total number of Two Hundred and Twenty One (221) Police Personnel attached to His Excellency, Chief Willie Obiano, Governor of Anambra State is more than the strength of some Police Area Commands in some States of the Country. This is done to ensure optimum safety and protection of the Executive Governor of Anambra State.<br \/>\nConsequently, members of the Public and the good people of Anambra State are implored to disregard the media report that the Aide-De \u2013Camp to the Governor of Anambra State was withdrawn.<br \/>\nFurthermore, the Security Arrangement currently being implemented by the Nigeria Police Force to ensure a conducive atmosphere for a credible, free and fair Gubernatorial Election scheduled for Saturday, 18th November, 2017 will not be compromised and will cover the protection of all the flag bearers of the Thirty Seven (37) Political parties participating in the Election.\u00a0 \u00a0The Force will also ensure adequate protection of the electorates, INEC Officials, Election Observers\/Monitors, Electoral Materials and the general populace before, during and after the election.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By CSP JIMOH MOSHOOD, FORCE PUBLIC RELATIONS OFFICER, FORCE HEADQUARTERS, RE- WITHDRAWAL OF AIDE- DE-CAMP (ADC) TO HIS EXCELLENCY, CHIEF WILLIE OBIANO, GOVERNOR OF ANAMBRA STATE The Nigeria Police Force has observed the innuendo, distortion of facts and false assertion in the media about the withdrawal of the Aide- De- Camp (ADC) to the Governor [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":5876,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5875","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/everyday.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5875","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/everyday.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/everyday.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/everyday.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/everyday.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5875"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/everyday.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5875\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/everyday.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5875"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/everyday.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5875"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/everyday.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5875"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
