AS POLICE ENGAGES IN MUSICAL CHAIR. 3 AIGs TRANSFERED IN 3 WEEKS?


By: Sahr James Bangah
A Million questions have been raised by residents of Makeni City and its immediate environs on the persistent and sustained transfer of top echelon Assistance Inspector General of Police  charged with the responsibility to police the North-East Region of the Republic of Sierra Leone. 

It is no longer secret that senior police transfers in the North-East region are like a “musical-and- chair” affair in this area of police responsibility. This smirks of the undesirable and unprofessional determinant of connectocracy. What might be disturbing is the disconnect in police leadership and operations by the frequent and seemingly uncoordinated method of transfer.

Three week ago Assistance inspector General of Police, Ambrose Sovula, an energetic and wholesomely professional  operations commander was transferred to Freetown-West while Assistance Inspector General of Police, Saidu B.A Jalloh, was formally transferred to North-East Region but unfortunately, his official transfer was withdrawn after he has officially taken over from AIG Sovula and proceeded to the holy land of mecca to seek the blessings, peace and protection of  Allah protection in his new position and office. 

By sudden twist of fate, AIG  Jalloh was replaced, with immediate effect, by Assistant Inspector General of Police, Thomas M. Lahai, who narrowly survived from a suspension earlier slammed on him.
