ESE:PSC TO SANCTION ANY OFFICER FOUND CULPABLE IN ABDUCTION SAGA

*WAITS ON POLICE INVESTIGATION

The Police Service Commission will not hesitate to sanction any Police Officer no matter how highly placed who is found culpable in the abduction saga of 14 year old Ese Oruru who was said to have been abducted and forced into marriage in Kano.

The Commission is waiting on the on-going investigation of some Police Officers on the directive of the Inspector General of Police, Mr. Solomon Arase, and will ensure that any Police Officer who is found to have compromised himself either by omission or commission in the saga will be flushed out.

It commends the Inspector General of Police for his swift action in rescuing the teenager and ensuring that she was immediately reunited with her family, adding that it will work with the IGP to see that Nigerians including the likes of Ese are guaranteed their freedom to life.

The Police Service Commission is constitutionally mandated to exercise disciplinary action against Members of the Police among other responsibilities and has the right to dismiss any Officer found culpable in the on-going abduction saga.
