Police Affairs perm-sec retires, charges directors on mentoring of officers


 

The Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Police Affairs, James Sule has retired from service after 35 years of service to the nation, charging the directorate cadre to mentor officers in the service for effective service delivery to the citizens.

Speaking at the send-forth ceremony organized by the ministry in his honour in Abuja, Sule said that everything starts and ends with leadership and the need to uphold the organization’s rules and regulations without considering people’s feelings.

“We are all leaders just like I said, don’t just think the president, vice president, and governors are only leaders. What can you do in your community to impact positively on others?

“What are you doing to mentor the younger ones so that whatever corner you find yourself in, whether you are a union leader, whether you are an assistant director or you are a principal officer, you do your best to be fair, accountable, and transparent in your activities?” he stressed.

The retired permanent secretary, according to a statement issued on Tuesday by the Deputy Director of Information and Public Relations in the ministry, Bolaji Kazeem, used the opportunity to thank the management and staff of the ministry for their support and for working with him as a team for a successful tenure.

He said: “Indeed, it was a privilege to work alongside a talented and committed team. Together we have achieved a lot, and I am proud of knowing you and we have accomplished it while we were here although it was short, I also want to thank you for your kind words. I thank my personal staff that’s brought so much to the nation-building.”

The Director overseeing the Permanent Secretary’s Office, Yusuf Abubakar Argungu stated that the staff had learned so much from the retired permanent secretary noting that the friendship and mentorship have just begun and not the end of it, just the beginning of it.

“It is the perfect time to reflect on the invaluable lessons, experiences, and memories you have shared with us and to experience our heartfelt appreciation. Retirement isn’t the end of an era but the beginning of a new chapter in life. We are wishing you a retirement filled with exciting journeys. Congratulations,” he stated.
