Before then, he was the ADC to DSP Alamieyeseigha when he was the Governor of Bayelsa State.
Jitoboh’s career in the police force came to an abrupt end following his compulsory retirement after the appointment of the current Inspector General of Police.
He subsequently approached the National Industrial Court in Abuja, alleging that he had been forced out of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF).
In his court filing, Jitoboh claimed he was compulsorily retired by the Police Service Commission (PSC) despite not having reached the mandatory retirement age of 60 or having served the required 35 years.
At the time of this report, the police was yet to confirm the development.
