Speaking at his first meeting with Command Police Commissioners and zonal AIGs in Abuja on Thursday, Baba said the IGP Monitoring Units will be re-organised.

He said the monitoring teams were disbanded over frequent complaints of harassment against the officers as well as the proliferation of such units.
