A reform committee, according to her , had been constituted  to work on 18 key targets that would modernize the Nigeria Police Force, as well as pave the way for  a better  retirement life for personnel.

 She said, “”I’m sure you may all be aware we have had eight reform papers since 1999 but none has been implemented to a satisfactory level.
