The New I.G of police, M D Abubakar
was recommended for retirement
following the 2001 Jos Riots. In a White Paper released in Jos, the state capital
16/02/2010, the panel into the Jos Crisis suggested that Abubakar should be dismissed if he refuses to retire.The panel said: "Religious fanatics should not be posted to head state police commands. The commission recommends that for his ignoble role during the September 2001 crisis which resulted in the loss of lives, the former Commissioner of Police, Plateau State Command, Alhaji M.D. Abubakar, be advised to retire from the Nigeria Police Force and in the event of his refusal to do so, he should be dismissed from the
service."Acting I-G Abubakar was also remember for the fact that he
ordered the arrest of women that wore trousers in public places and in the streets in Lagos state when he was Commissioner of Police there just a few years ago until he was called to order by the Governor who had to remind him that Lagos state was not a sharia state and neither were the majority of Lagosians muslims. Quite apart from that he was seriously
indicted and recommended for dismissal from the police by the Justice Niki Tobi Panel
for aiding and abetting the killing of christians in Jos during the religious crisis there in 2001. This is the man that President Goodluck
Jonathan has now appointed to head the Nigerian police force at this crucial time when the islamists are trying to set this country on fire. What has got into our President? Can someone please tell me? Does he not do his homework properly or is it that he doesn't care? What does he expect the christian population in this
country to feel with this appointment? I have come to the
conclusion that our President needs help, counselling and a whole lot of prayers. Pl read the following carefully- The Justice Niki Tobi panel constituted in September 2001by former Governor Joshua Dariye on the Jos crisis had recommended the
retirement MD Abubakar from the
Police force. He ws also with Biu in d airport bomb cover up during
Abacha era. D blast that killed Dr
Omosola. In a White Paper released in Jos, the panel suggested that AIG Abubakar should be dismissed if he refuses to retire. The panel said: "Religious fanatics
should not be posted to head state
police commands. The commission
recommends that for his ignoble role during the September 2001 crisis which resulted in the loss of lives, the former Commissioner of Police, Plateau State Command, Alhaji M.D. Abubakar, be advised to retire from the Nigeria Police Force and in the event of his refusal to do so, he should be dismissed from the service." Abubakar from Zamfara State who was indicted twice between 2004 and 2006 by a Jos crises Panel, is alleged to
have sponsored some Islamist
Militant Group when he was
Commissioner of Police in Bauchi and Plateau States.
