The Police Service Commission is the civilian oversight body established under the Nigerian Constitution for the Nigeria Police Force.
It has power to appoint, promote, discipline and dismiss all officers of the Nigeria Police Force(NPF) except the Inspector-General of Police (IGP).
The objectives of the Commission are to make the relationship between the public and the police one of trust and confidence instead of suspicion and indifference.
