IG Arase sets new Conditions for Issuing Guns to Nigeria Policemen

All Nigerian policemen from now onward will have to pass a drug test before they can be issued firearms.

The order was mandated by Inspector General of Police, Solomon Arase at the launch of drug testing kits and campaign against sudden death of police officers in Abuja today April 6th.

“After an in-depth study, my team and I have found out that some of these fatal cases could be due to mishandling of firearms by police officers who are psychologically unfit to handle firearms at that time. We have therefore decided that the medical assessment of persons we recruit into the police Force will include a psychological assessment“ he added.
