IGP moves to support Christian Pilgrimage, nominates 10 Police officers for Jerusalem exercise

By Joyce Remi-Babayeju

The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Usman Alkali Baba,has expressed his ça support for Christian pilgrimage as nomimates ten Christian Police Officers for the 2023 Pilgrimage to Jerusalem, Israel.

The Police Officers Pilgrimage which is the first of its kind in the Nigerian Police Force was initiated and financed by the IGP in collaboration with some well-meaning Nigerians to encourage Police Officers to be steadfast and uphold the tenets of their faith.

The IGP has also sought and got the approval of the Nigerian Christian Pilgrim Commission (NCPC) to ensure that this becomes a routine activity. He has equally institutionalized the system to ensure that subsequent administrations tow the same path.

IGP Baba also urged the officers to be good ambassadors of the Nigeria Police Force and the country during the period of the pilgrimage as he tasked them to spend the period in sober reflection which would ultimately impact on their duty as Police men.
