Breaking stereotypes; female police officer displays zeal and passion in traffic policing
A female police officer decided to break stereotypes and distinguished herself as an exceptional traffic police officer. Telling her story, Jumai Ibrahim said she initially intended to be a nurse and never admired police officers who always appeared tattered and unkempt. Along the line she decided to join the police and make a difference. Jumai is known for her excitement and the fun with which she controls vehicular traffic, always wearing a smile, singing, and dancing while carrying out her daily duty. She however, lamented the the unappreciative and stereotyped attitude of some road users who feel her job should be reserved for men only. Nevertheless, some well meaning Nigerians who appreciate Jumai's efforts have taken steps to demonstrate their love by buying her gifts and offering prayers to God for her and according to Jumai, this serves as great source of encouragement to her.
