Federal Government has approved a new uniform for the Police as part of the reforms and image-laundering for the force.
Acting Inspector-General of Police Mohammed Abubakar, in Abuja on Tuesday explained that President Goodluck Jonathan approved a test-run of the dress for the force as one of its operational attire.
A statement by the Force Public Relations Officer, Olusola Amore, quoted Abubakar as saying that his appearance in the new police camouflage was to test-run the uniform as one of the force’s operational outfits.
It said the camouflage, which is an admixture of black, white and ash colours, would serve as an operational dress for the police with some inherent advantages when fully integrated and confirmed as one of the official police outfits.
According to the statement, the acting IG explained that the new dress was in line with the transformation agenda of the government and the desire of the Police Management Team to reform and the police.
Abubakar said, “The advantages of the new police camouflage include cost effective to maintain; operationally durable; highly customized with security features to forestall impersonation and environmentally- friendly.
“The police boss is using this medium to call on general public to come up with constructive criticisms regarding the new police camouflage, so that public opinion will be given adequate consideration.”
