LAGOS – A joint monitoring of the Police Service Commission and the Nigeria Police Force will soon embark on periodic visits to police stations across the country.
The visit to stations became imperative as the Nigeria Police Force had been accused of alleged human rights violation of detainees in their frailties across the country.
According to Chairman, Police Service Commission, Musiliu Smith, the management of the commission is aware of what it takes to have an efficient service delivery in the police.
Smith said very soon, the commission would ensure that service delivery in the force was effective, efficient and citizen focused.
He said it was on that basis that the commission was determined to closely monitor recruitment of personnel into the force.
The chairman assured that disciplinary matters would be speedily disposed off, adding that the commission would use its mandate fearlessly and fairly.
According to a release by the head of public Affairs of the Commission, Smith said this when the National Co-ordinator of SERVICOM, Nnenna Akajemeli visited him in Abuja.
Earlier, Akajemeli said the quality of governance was determined by the quality of services delivered to the citizens and the extent to which the services meet the need of their needs and expectations.
She said since the public service was the only contact that most citizens have with government, SERVICOM was focused on improving the quality of the contact by working with MDAs to ensure effective service delivery.
