The Lagos State Police Command spokesperson, Ngozi
Conchita Braide, yesterday begged those whom she had offended to forgive her as
she announced her deployment by the Command ‘for greater assignment.’
In a ‘thank you’ letter made
available to journalists,
Braide who is the first female Police Public
Relations Officer (PPRO) in the Command said that her junior colleague, a Deputy
Superintendent of Police (DSP), Mr. Kenneth Nwosu, will immediately take over
as the image-maker of the Command.
She urged all journalists to give
Nwosu, “the same level of cooperation you gave to me.”
Braide who asked for forgiveness
from people she may have unwittingly offended said: “During the discharge of my
duties here in Lagos State as the Police Spokesperson, l may have had
disagreements with some of you, I hereby use this medium to say “I am sorry”.
Considering the complexity of my office and varied opinions, there was no way I
wouldn’t have offended someone.”
She expressed her profound gratitude
for the maximum support given to her by friends in the media and Lagosians as a
whole. “You have been quite cooperative as you assisted me in making my job easier
despite my short comings,” she said.
She continued: “As the First Female
Police Public Relations Officer in Lagos State, I expressed fears when I
assumed office on June 11, 2012, but to my greatest surprise, I experienced the
warmest reception and assistance from you all.
“I use this medium to thank Assistant
Inspector General of Police (AIG), Mr. Umar Manko who accorded me the wonderful
opportunity to serve Lagos State. I thank him for his understanding, assistance
and fatherly advice during my tenure. My gratitude also goes to the new Commissioner
of Police, Mr. Kayode Aderanti for his understanding during my short stay with
him.”
