Alabi told Area Commanders, Tactical Commanders and Divisional Police Officers (DPOs) to ensure strict enforcement.

The CP said the caution “is in compliance with the earlier directive of the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Alkali Baba Usman”.

Alabi reminded officers on patrol and stop-and-search duties that they must appear in approved uniforms.

The chief vowed to vicariously hold liable any supervisor or Head of Department “under whose jurisdiction this directive is flouted”.
