CPL Suleiman Musa demoted for disobeying Police IGP and Presidential orders on VIP escort in Abuja
In a recent disciplinary action in Nigeria Police force, CPL Suleiman Musa (F/No: 517077) serving at the 45 PMF has been demoted from Corporal to Constable for escorting a VIP without proper authorization. This action was deemed a violation of lawful orders from both the Inspector General (IGP) and the President.

This disciplinary measure serves as a stern reminder that officers in Abuja and across Nigeria must adhere strictly to operational orders to maintain integrity, order, and public trust.
