Policemen Are Not Going On Strike In Gombe State – Commissioner

The Commissioner of Police, Gombe State Command, Ishola Babaita has come out to say that policemen are not going on strike in the state.

He recently revealed this while speaking to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, the rumors are far from true that officers under his command are set to go on strike amid a lack of proper welfare complaints.

He added that members of the public should disregard the fake news and go about their lawful businesses without fear of harassment or molestation of any kind.

His words, “The attention of Gombe State Police Command has been drawn to inciting news being spread across some sections of the media, particularly the social media platforms that some members of the force will be embarking on a strike action with effect from March 26, 2022.”

“The purported strike is fake, deliberate and calculated attempt by some unpatriotic individuals to cause disaffection between Police and the Public.”

“I wish to implore the good people of Gombe State, to disregard this misinformation and to assure them that, officers and men of the Command are compassionate servants of the citizens and there is no iota of truth on Police embarking on strike.”
