A police corporal in Ebonyi State has reportedly been unable to join her spouse for nearly nine months, despite receiving an approved inter-state transfer from the Inspector-General of Police. The officer, who was recently married, remains stationed in the state amid claims that the local command is withholding her release due to alleged manpower shortages.
The situation has prompted questions regarding the authority of state police commands to retain personnel after the Force Headquarters has officially authorized their transfer. As of now, the Ebonyi State Police Command has not publicly addressed the specific circumstances surrounding the delay of the corporal’s reassignment.
