The Police Service Commission (PSC) on Thursday stated that former Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim Lamorde, is still a Commissioner of Police.

Okiro was quoted by Vanguard as saying that Lamorde performed well at the EFCC and would soon be re-assigned.

“He is still a serving Commissioner of Police. He will come back to us for re-posting. He was only seconded to EFCC.

“He will not be required to go through any process because he was just on secondment. The moment he reports, we will post him.”

“He did very well. He did the Police proud. He performed his beat and we are happy and proud of him.”

President Muhammadu Buhari earlier in the week replaced Lamorde with Ibrahim Magu, an Assistant Commissioner of Police, ACP, asking the former to proceeded on his terminal leave.

Lamorde was born on 20 December 1962 in Mubi, Adamawa State. He attended Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, graduating with a BA in Sociology in 1984.

He joined the Nigerian police in 1986, and from 1987 to 1988 worked at the Niger State Police Command in Minna.

From 1988 to 1989 he was Divisional Crime Officer in Rijau, Niger State. He then served as Police Public Relations Officer for the Niger State police from 1989 to 1993.

In 1993 Lamorde was appointed an officer of the newly created Special Fraud Unit (SFU) of the Nigeria Police, serving in the unit charged with investigated advance-fee fraud until 2002.

One of Lamorde’s colleagues at the SFU was Farida Waziri.

While in the SFU, from 2000 to 2001 he was seconded to the United Nations Civilian Police in the Ermera District of East Timor as a Chief Investigation Officer.

Lamorde was a Divisional Police Officer in Oyo State before being deployed to the police force headquarters in Abuja.

He was appointed Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on 23 November 2011 after chairman Farida Waziri had been dismissed by President Goodluck Jonathan.

He was confirmed as Chairman by the Senate on 15 February 2012.
