The Force Headquarters in Abuja has declared the Chairman, Senate Committee on Navy, Senator Hamman Isah Misau a deserter for absconding from duty on the 24th September, 2010 while still facing the Force Disciplinary Committee (FDC).
Consequently, the Force headquarters has called on the Senate Ethics and Privileges Committee to prevail on ‘DSP Mohammed Isah Hamman to return to the NPF to face the Force Disciplinary Committee for various acts of serious misconduct, unprofessional wrong doings contrary to discipline, and other discreditable improper behaviours unbecoming of a police officer that he was charged with.
Briefing the press on allegations made by the Senator during which has said IGP Ibrahim Idris has diverted about n10billion internally generated revenue by the police and that he had turned the Nigerian Police Force into a Nupe Police, Force Public relations Officer, CSP Jimoh Moshood said, “As a deserter from the Nigerian Police, Senator Isah Hamman Misau, the force will definitely take appropriate action in this circumstance.
Moshood said the circumstance of a deserter has to do with the Police Act and Regulations, the criminal and Penal Codes, stipulating that a deserted is a suspected criminal under the law adding, “All other security agencies in the country are equally implored to assist the Nigeria Police force in this regard”.
On the justification of saying he is a deserter, the FPRO said, “Senator Misau who in the police is AP. No 57000 was redeployed to Niger state Police Command on 24 September, 2010 and refused to report, consequent upon which he was queried in line with the Public Service Rules, in addition to previous queries and disciplinary processes.
Continuing the FPRO said, “Aside refusing to go to Niger State, DSP Isah Hamman Misau refused to proceed to the Junior Command Course JCC 49/2008 at Staff College, Jos between 5th January, 2009 and 19th June, 2009. The name of the officer is still on the Police Staff list. He cannot be retired because his disciplinary case is yet to be dispensed with”.

Brandishing the purported retirement letter as claimed by the Senator to show he was properly retired, CSP Jimoh said, “He contested the Bauchi Central Senatorial Election in 2011 general elections under Action Congress of Nigeria and got a suspected forged retirement letter dated 5th March, 2014. This means that for 4 years, he is still a police officer which makes it a criminal act for him to contest election as a police officer in service and this is another fraud the police is investigating against him.
“He also perpetrated an act of impersonation by acknowledging the receipt of the suspected forged retirement letter as a Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP Hamman Isah) instead of his actual rank of a deputy Superintendent of Police in the purported fake retirement letter.
Commenting on the allegations against the IGP and certain appointments, the Force PRO said, “It is clearly a false allegation and severe distraction for DSP Isah Hamman or anybody to wrongly, without any proof or evidence accuse the Inspector General of Police of failure to remit money realized from policemen attached to private citizens and oil companies amounting to about N10billion monthly IGR, when the truth and facts are that Nigeria Police Force is not a revenue generating agency.
“These allegations from a dubious and fraudulent deserter are ridiculous, baseless and a bear parlour gossip which can only be from someone of unsound mind, unrepentant and habitual liar who patronizes Indian hemp joints”, he said.
He said the IGP cannot compromise his integrity by receiving money before officers are posted. This allegation is also baseless, unfounded and so should be disregarded and discountenanced by the public.
Regarding the appointment of Adamawa State Police Commissioner, the FPRO said, “CP Moses Jitoboh was promoted Commissioner of Police before the current police Management Team and he is not a Nupe officer but was not found to be capable and efficient which was why he was posted as Commissioner of Police, Adamawa State Command.
“Since his posting to Adamawa State, he has brought down crime rate to barest in the state and there has not been any complaint from the people and government of Adamawa State on his performance”.
Furthermore, Moshood said, “In conclusion, AP. No 57300, DSP Mohammed Isah Hamman is still a Police Officer and not regarded as a Senator by the Nigerian Police Force.
“The retirement letter he is parading is a suspected forged document under investigation.”
