The Inspector-General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba, said no female police officer will be ejected from Police barracks across the country for residing with a civilian husband.

Force Public Relations Officer, CP Frank Mba disclosed this in a statement on Wednesday.

The Police boss gave this assurance while reacting to a signal purportedly originated by the Enugu State Police Command, stating that women Police personnel occupying barracks accommodation with their civilian husbands should vacate before January 31, 2022.

Mba said the IGP has ordered investigations into the viral signal to ensure that disciplinary action is taken against any person found wanting.

According to the statement, the directive is not in line with the Force Gender Policy which institutionalizes gender mainstreaming as its core value, as the Force has produced several top-ranking, successful female officers.
