Why Egbetokun Will Remain Police IG Despite Clocking 60 – Spokesperson

 

President Bola Tinubu did not extend the tenure of the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Kayode Egbetokun.

This is according to the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) which said instead, the President gave his approval to the law governing the tenure of the office as required.

In a statement on Friday, Force spokesperson, Muyiwa Adejobi, said the IGP’s appointment is for four years.

“The attention of the Nigeria Police Force has been drawn to various misleading reports and misinterpretations concerning the tenure of the Inspector General of Police, and wishes to categorically state that what President Bola Tinubu approved for the IGP is not an extension of tenure, but rather the proper application of the law governing the tenure of the office of the IGP,” the statement read.

“Contrary to the misinformation being circulated on social media and in the news, an appointment letter in circulation was issued to the IGP shortly after his appointment was confirmed by the Police Council.
