President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has removed the Inspector General of Police, IGP Olukayode Egbetokun, from office, replacing him with a newly-appointed Assistant Inspector General of Police, AIG Olatunji Disu.

Though yet to be officially confirmed, Presidency sources told The Eagle Online that the confirmation would be in a matter of minutes.

Disu was recently promoted to the rank of AIG and transferred to head the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) Annex in Lagos.

Born on September 4, 1964, he was due to have returned from the force in September 2024, but for the extension.
