Former Police Force spokesperson, Frank Mba, has returned to his previous position.

Mr Mba, an Assistant Commissioner of Police, first served as spokesperson for the Force under then police boss, Mohammed Abubakar, from 2012 to 2014.

He was relieved of his post after Mr Abubakar’s departure.

New Inspector-General of Police, Adamu Mohammed, had tipped Mba as the next police spokesperson.

Mba studied law at the University of Lagos and was called to the Nigerian bar in 2002.

The police spokesman, who hails from Ezimo in Udenu Local Government Area of Enugu State, was the best graduating cadet inspector in academics at the Police Academy, Kano, in 1993.

He rose up the police ladder and was promoted to assistant superintendent of police in 1999, deputy superintendent of police in 2003, superintendent of police in 2006 and chief superintendent of police in 2012.
