Abuja – The Inspector-General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba, has approved a new and improved dress code for women police officers in Nigeria.

A statement issued in Abuja on Saturday by the Acting Force Public Relation Ofgucrr, CSP Muyiwa Adejobi confirmed this.

He said the new dress code permits the women police officers to wear stud earrings, and headscarf under their berets or peak caps as the case may be while in uniform.

The dress code was unveiled at the IGP’s meeting with Strategic Police Managers on March 3, 2022, Adejobi said.

The IGP was quoted as saying that the Nigeria Police workforce has officers from every local government in the country with a variety of ethnic and religious backgrounds, saying that this will lead to an increased inclusion of female folks.

” This therefore brings the need to guarantee inclusion, gender mainstreaming, ethnic and religious diversity in the work place for optimum output and professionalism.

” This has informed the improvement for effective global workforce diversity management.

“Other countries that have adopted same dress code include Canada, the United States of America, Sweden, Turkey, Australia and the United Kingdom amongst others,” the statement said.

Adejobi, however, said that the dress code is optional for senior women police officers.

He stated that the IGP has tasked them to ensure compliance with the approved standards for women police officers who have opted to adopt the dress code.

” The Inspector-General of Police noted that this development, which is in line with international best practices addresses the growing concern for gender mainstreaming and respect for culture and diversity,” he said. (vitalnews)
