President Bola Tinubu will on Wednesday swear in Tunji Disu as the substantive Inspector-General of Police.
This is according to the President’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga.
Onanuga disclosed that the ceremony will take place at the Presidential Villa in Abuja during the Federal Executive Council meeting, following the endorsement of Disu’s appointment by the Nigeria Police Council.
He said the President’s action formalises Disu’s elevation to the top leadership position in the force.
Disu, who had been serving in an acting capacity, will assume full responsibilities as head of the Nigeria Police Force after taking the oath of office.
His confirmation comes amid ongoing efforts by the administration to strengthen security institutions and enhance policing across the country.
The Presidency expressed confidence that the new IGP will provide the leadership required to reposition the force and address prevailing security challenges nationwide.
