IGP Disburses Over N2.8billion in Insurance to Families of Fallen Officers

…Total Payout Hits N22.9 Billion Benefiting Over 8,000 Families

The Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Dr. Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, today presented Group Life Assurance and Family Welfare Insurance cheques totaling over N2.85 billion to the next-of-kin of 1,235 fallen officers.

The solemn ceremony, held at the IGP Smart Conference Hall, Force Headquarters in Abuja, brought together members of the Force Management Team, senior police officers, insurance industry stakeholders, and beneficiaries of the welfare schemes.

In his remarks, the IGP emphasized the Nigeria Police Force’s enduring commitment to honouring the legacies of officers who paid the ultimate price in service to the nation. “No amount of money can replace a life lost in service,” Egbetokun said, “but we will continue to stand by the families left behind. This is not just a financial commitment; it is a moral obligation.”

The IGP disclosed that the disbursement marks the tenth phase of the insurance payment initiative, raising the total amount paid to bereaved families to an unprecedented N22.98 billion. Since the commencement of the programme, 8,311 families have received benefits across nine previous phases.

He also highlighted that the payments address long-standing death benefit arrears covering the 2018/2019 to 2023/2024 insurance years.

Egbetokun expressed profound appreciation to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his unwavering support towards enhancing the welfare of police personnel, both serving and retired.

“The Nigeria Police is founded on the values of service, integrity, and sacrifice,” the IGP noted. “We are committed to institutionalising responsive welfare measures to ensure that no next-of-kin is left in uncertainty again.”

The Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, reaffirmed the Force’s dedication to improving the well-being of officers and the families of those who have served with honour.
