The Police Service Commission (PSC) has approved the posting of Salisu Fago as the new Commissioner of Police for Niger State, succeeding the retired Commissioner of Police Adamu Ell.
Fago’s appointment comes as part of the PSC’s mandate to oversee senior police postings and ensure continuity of leadership within the Nigerian Police Force.
Niger State, located in north‑central Nigeria, will now be led by Fago, who is expected to take over the duties of managing law‑enforcement operations, community policing initiatives, and administrative responsibilities in the state.
The retirement of CP Adamu Ell created a vacancy that the PSC filled promptly, reflecting the commission’s role in maintaining stable command structures across the country’s police hierarchy.
Details on Fago’s background and the exact date of his assumption of duties were not disclosed in the announcement.
