VICE PRESIDENT SHETTIMA DECORATES ACTING INSPECTOR GENERAL OF POLICE

Vice-President Kashim Shettima, today, decorated the new acting Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, at the State House, following his appointment by the President Bola Tinubu, on Monday.

The ceremony had in attendance the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu; Chairman of the Progressives Governors’ Forum, Hope Uzodinma; the President’s Chief of Staff, Femi Gbajabiamila; Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume and the immediate past IGP, Usman Alkali.

The new police chief, who spoke to journalists shortly afterward, said he feels “like a tiger ready to devour Nigeria’s internal enemies”.

You will recall that President Bola Tinubu last night approved the immediate retirement of the Chief of Defence Staff, all the nation’s service chiefs, the Inspector General of Police, as well as the Comptroller General of the Nigeria Customs Service amongst others.
