Tinubu Removes Egbetokun, Appoints Tunji Disu As New Inspector-General Of Police

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has appointed Tunji Disu as Nigeria’s new Inspector-General of Police, replacing Kayode Egbetokun.

A presidency source confirmed the development to ARISE News on Tuesday.

The source confirmed the development, stating that an official announcement would be made shortly. “AIG Tunji Disu is the new IGP. Confirmed,” the source said, adding that the information had received “double confirmation.”

Efforts to obtain a reaction from the Force Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, were unsuccessful at the time of filing this report.

Disu recently took over as AIG Force CID Annex, Alagbon, Lagos. 

He is a thoroughbred police operational officer with proven records of remarkable performance and enduring reforms in previous postings.
