He added that another 20 personnel were converted from inspector cadre to superintendent cadre and 17 personnel were upgraded from the corps assistant cadre to superintendent cadre.

Also speaking at the event, the Commander, 1 Brigade, Gusau, Brig-Gen. Musiliu Bello urged the officers and men of the command to justify their promotion by working hard to combat current security challenges in the country.

Aliyu urged them to be more dedicated to duty and double their effort in tackling the security threats facing the state and nation at large.
