Unusual history was made last Friday
at the Force Headquarters, Abuja, when a father and his son were decorated with their new ranks as police officers by the Inspector General of Police, Olukayode Adeolu Egbetokun PhD, NPM.
The elated father was decorated as the new Deputy Inspector General of Police (DIG), while the son was decorated with the rank of the Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP), to the admiration of the wife of the new DIG who is also the mother of the new ASP.
The new DIG, Habu A. Sani, was the first to be decorated while the son, ASP Musa Sani, was decorated later by the Ag IGP Olukayode Egbetokun, assisted by Mrs Sani and others.
According to the Nigeria Police Force on its Twitter handle on Friday, the ceremony, which was unusual as it happens only once in a blue moon, saw the IGP and the father decorating the ASP shortly after the father was decorated while the woman of the house looked in admiration after she had decorated her husband.
The record makers were beaming with smiles throughout the event. It should be recalled that similar situation happens once in awhile. The Sani’s knighted the participants that witness the joyous occasion with the queer development.
