At least 115 Police Mobile Force (PMF) operatives across the country have been disbanded as part of an ongoing reorganisation in Nigeria Police Force.
The affected policemen comprised 37 Inspectors, 67 Sergeants and 11 Corporals were asked to leave the PMF with immediate effect.
TheNation gathered that a signal signed by the Commissioner of Police (CP) PMF Lawal Jimeta dated September 3 asked all the unit commanders where the affected cops were serving to warn them before sending them out to their new places of assignment.
The demobilisation of the affected policemen was part of strategies to reorganise the PMF for effective performance.
