He said the Asian country is also one of the leading countries in manufacturing of security uniform, garments and textile.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Shogunle said that the complete uniforms will be issued free of charge to officers from the rank of Constable to Inspector, while senior officers from the rank of Assistant Superintendent of Police, ASP and above will pay a token for their uniforms.<\/p>\n<p>Although, Mr. Shogunle did not reveal the amount to be paid by the senior officers, he noted that the uniforms can be collected from the Nigerian police officer\u2019s shop.<\/p>\n<p>He said prices of the uniforms and how many pairs each person was expected to receive could not be revealed to the public for security reasons.<\/p>\n<p>He also said there is no set date for the complete phase out of the black police uniform.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no date yet for the complete phase out of the black uniforms. We are still running the samples but one thing I can tell you is that, by the time the very new set are introduced, they are just going to be similar to what you see on police in developed countries,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He however said that required samples of the uniform have been sent to some industries in Pakistan, noting that once the samples are returned and corrections made, if any, the Nigeria Police will start mass production of these new uniforms for the police.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have sent samples with special security features to some garment industries in Pakistan, once the samples get back to us and are checked for corrections then, we can go into mass production,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He also noted that production of the police uniforms will commence fully in Nigeria when the police tailors come back from Pakistan and equipment to work with are made available.<\/p>\n<p>Premium Times.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"message\"><\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Nigerian Police on Monday said it will be sending some of its officers to Pakistan for training on making police uniforms.
