Rivers Police Spokesperson Called to the Bar

Blessing Agabe Karbolo, the spokesperson for the Rivers State Police Command, has achieved a significant professional milestone by being called to the Nigerian Bar. As an Assistant Superintendent of Police, Agabe was among the new lawyers inducted as Barristers and Solicitors of the Supreme Court of Nigeria at a ceremony in Abuja.

Agabe, who hails from Tai Local Government Area in Rivers State, expressed her elation at the accomplishment, attributing all glory to God. She noted the significance of the event, quoting Romans 9:16: "It's not of him who willeth nor runneth but by the one (God) that showeth mercy."

What can I say? I’m overwhelmed.

Her journey to the bar includes a Bachelor of Laws degree from the Nigeria Police Academy, obtained after a five-year training program. She subsequently earned her Barrister-at-Law qualification from the Nigerian Law School, Enugu Campus, and later a Master of Laws degree from Rivers State University. Agabe was commissioned into the Nigeria Police Force in 2023 and appointed as the Police Public Relations Officer for Rivers State in April 2024.

This dual qualification as a police officer and a legal practitioner marks a notable advancement in Agabe's career. It is expected to enhance her capabilities in both her public relations role and her operational duties within the police force.
