According to the statement, prior to this appointment, AIG Rhoda served as the AIG Maritime Police Command at the Force Headquarters Annex in Lagos as the 20th Assistant Inspector-General of Police to hold the position and, notably, the third female to head the Maritime Command. 

The statement added that her new appointment comes as part of the IGP’s vision of enhancing the NPF’s efficiency and the recent gender policy changes aimed at increasing the representation of women in key positions within the Nigerian Police Force. 

He said the decision not only showcases the IGP's commitment to gender inclusivity but also reflects a broader shift towards recognizing and utilizing the diverse talents within the force, regardless of gender as It aligns with global trends in law enforcement that recognize the value of diverse leadership in enhancing community relations and improving overall policing effectiveness.

As the Nigerian Police Force continues to evolve and adapt to the changing needs of the nation, the Inspector-General of Police reaffirms his commitment to the progressive development of the Nigeria Police Force and the promotion of gender inclusivity in all sheres.
