JUST IN: Retiring IGP, Idris Secretly Parking Out Of Force Headquarters
Nigeria’s Inspector General of Police, IGP Ibrahim Kpotum Idris has retired and currently parking out of the force headquarters, BigPen Online has been told.
Sources revealed Friday night that the IGP is currently moving his belongings from the force headquarters.
BigPen Online gathered that the most senior officer, DIG Maigari Abbati Dikko, fdc, Deputy Inspector General of Police, Department of Finance and Administration is to take over from Idris.
The police chief would formally hand over on Monday January 15, when he will be clocking 60 years of age.
Recalls that President Muhamadu Buhari had recently assured that he will act on the lingering controversy surrounding the retirement of Nigeria’s Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris.
Buhari had come under criticisms in recent days over his inaction on the police IG’s retirement despite his perceived inefficiency.
According to public service laws, the occupant of the office of the Inspector-General of Police is to retire after spending the mandatory 35 years in service or attaining 60 years of age.
In reaction to this and other calls for action, President Buhari said he was not “afraid” of the police boss, and that he would take action.
“I saw on the television, somebody has given me last warning to…I have accepted responsibility, I don’t think I am afraid of him and I don’t think I have organised roadblocks and got collections from it to say that I will lose some part of my revenue from him,” he said jokingly.
“I will take action,” he added.
