The Inspector General of Police (IGP) Tunji Disu has appointed Anietie Iniedu as the new Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the Nigeria Police Force.
Iniedu’s appointment was contained in a statement on Friday by the outgoing police spokesman, Anthony Placid, who said the new PRO “is a seasoned police officer with extensive experience in public communication, operational policing, intelligence management, institutional accountability, and administration”.
“A native of Etinan Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, he holds a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) degree in Pure Chemistry from the University of Uyo and has undergone several professional trainings in investigative interviewing, crime scene management, human rights-based policing, strategic communication, and intelligence analysis,” the statement read in part.
He takes over from Placid, who was only appointed to that position in March 2026.
