The Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Mohammed Adamu, and the Police Service Commission (PSC) to maintain status-quo on the ongoing recruitment of 10, 000 officers.
Justice Inyang Ekwo gave the order on Wednesday at the hearing of the case brought by the PSC against Mr Adamu.
The commission had brought the matter before the court, asking it to stop the IGP from continuing the recruitment exercise for usurping the power of the commission.
The judge adjourned the case until November 4 for mention.
