Must read

The Federal High Court, Abuja, on Tuesday, slammed a three-month imprisonment on the Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba, for disobeying a court order.

Justice Mobolaji Olajuwon, who delivered the judgement, issued the order following a suit filed by a former police officer, Patrick Okoli.

Okoli claimed he was unlawfully and compulsorily retired from the Nigeria Police Force on December 5, 1992.

The retired officer had since 1994 obtained two court judgments ordering his reinstatement and promotion to the suitable rank.
