The United Nations Mission in South Sudan has presented special
United Nations, UN, medals to 34 Nigerian police officers for their
exceptional performance in the discharge of their assigned roles in the
troubled country.
Decorating the officers with their medals, the
Special Representatives of the Secretary General, SRSG, Mrs. Hilda
Johnson, described the honour as hard earned, considering the enormous
commitment and sacrifices the officers made in their efforts towards
enthroning the rule of law in the newly independent state.
On his
part, Nigeria’s Inspector General of Police, Mohamed Abubakar, commended
the officers for their good conduct, advising them not to deviate from
the core values of discipline, professionalism, selflessness and
dedication to duties. (If I hear# hehehe…dedication to duties ko, selflessness ni)
