Oyo CP tells corrupt policemen to resign

The new Commissioner of Police in Oyo State, Leye Oyebade, has called on officers of the command who are not ready to imbibe the culture of professional best practices to resign.

Oyebade made the call in his first address to officers of the command after taking over from his predecessor, Mohammed Katsina, on Tuesday in Ibadan.

Oyebade also said the vision of the Inspector General of Police, Solomon Arase, was to give the force a friendly image.

He said, “I have been briefed about the teamwork existing among officers and men of the command; so I salute your resolve to reduce crime.

“Let me reiterate the commitment of the police high command to change the perception of the police as a corrupt institution. It will be dangerous for a policeman that is not ready to imbibe the culture of professional best practices and diligence to remain in the force.
