    We’ll change criteria for promoting paramilitary personnel – FG

    We’ll change criteria for promoting paramilitary personnel – FG

    The Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo has said the Federal Government would no longer base the promotion of personnel of the paramilitary services on passing promotion examinations alone.

    According to the Minister, officers and men of the Services would face rigorous criteria to earn their promotions in the services.

     

    Tunji- Ojo stated this while speaking at the book presentation by the Commandant General of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Dr Ahmed Audi and Prof Tyoor Terhemba at the Corps headquarters in Abuja.

     

    He praised the academic outputs of the NSCDC Commandant General, asserting that personnel must upgrade their knowledge, and fine tune their skills to qualify for their upward movements henceforth.

     

    Tunji-Ojo said: “The best of people you find in the FBI, the best of the people you find in the MI6, all over the world in CIA, they are alumni of some of the best Institutions in the world.

     

    “Knowledge is directly proportional to performance. You can not give what you don’t have. The battle ahead of us is more ideological than physical and you can only defeat an ideology with your ideology and your ideology is nothing but superior knowledge and knowledge comes from the place of learning.

    “I will personally ensure all our agencies have a functional library for research. The era of promotion just by writing exams will soon be over. Your promotion has to be a product of a cocktail of evaluation parameters based on experience, practicability of excellence, base on theory and ability to profer solutions.

     

    “If you want to be a DCG for example, you must let us know that you have the idea of the challenges of the moment and you are able to forecast problems that are not yet there and profer solutions. The ability to solve a problem before it comes is what leadership is all about.

     

    “Security is like science and that is why we talk about trends, we talk about occurrences. The ability to forecast prospective incidences would determine the level of security.”

     

    The Minister announced the establishment of a team tagged: Paramilitary Brain Trust (PBT), which would be made up of public officers and professionals with the task of providing technical advice to the government through research and other academic endeavours.

     

    While commending the CG for his achievements, he said Audi had shown capacity in leading the Corps to tackle criminal elements in the country.

     

    The CG said five of the books were completely written by him while the other seven were co-authored by associates.

     

    He said he started writing the books five years ago.

     

    The books were written on insecurity in Nigeria, terrorism, peace and conflict resolution among other subjects around security.
