The newly appointed Acting Inspector-General of Police, Solomon Arase, on Thursday, April 23, 2015 visited President Goodluck Jonathan, where the pair held a closed door meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
This comes 24 hours after Aranse took over from his predecessor, Suleiman Abba on Wednesday, April 22, 2015.
Speaking to State House correspondents after the meeting, Aranse availed that he had visited President Jonathan in order to brief him on police preparedness ahead of the rescheduled election run-off in three states – Imo, Abia and Taraba.
He said: “Well, first and foremost, we still have some elections left in about three states and we are doing some massive deployment of men materials.
“That is what I came to brief the Commander-in-Chief.
“I can assure you that we are going to have a level playing field for people who want to vote on Election Day.
“The deviants, like I said yesterday (Wednesday, at the hand over ceremony) will be decisively dealt with.”
