“The governor also asked him to name any part of the state he would like to live even after his retirement from the Police.” The release also gave some reasons for which the governor took the decision, “I want to thank you for the services you rendered to Imo State and her people.
What made you outstanding is that your job comes first before money. “Your success came because money never counted in your willingness to succeed.
You have set a very high standard for the in-coming Commissioner of Police. Now Imo people will Judge Commissioners of Police from your standard.

“That is why you succeeded in chasing armed robbers, and kidnappers away from Imo. Imo people will decorate you with loudest of honour when the time comes. We shall be giving you our Imo Merit Award.”
