The Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, on Thursday, announced the new postings for three Commissioners of Police to other States.
Egbetokun, who announced the three new postings through the Force spokesman, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, charged the senior officers to ensure diligence in the discharge of their lawful duties.
According to Adejobi, the redeployment of the four CPs that had earlier been deployed to Abia, Lagos, Ebonyi and Akwa-Ibom State Commands respectively, followed approval of the Police Service Commission (PSC).
Those redeployed include the Rivers State CP, Olatunji Disu who will now superintend FCT; Delta State CP, Abaniwonda Olufemi who is now in charge of Rivers; and FCT CP, Peter Opara who is now the new police boss in Delta State.
He added that the redeployment was in an effort to strategically emplace a Police Force well efficient for effective policing
“In addition, following the approval of the Police Service Commission, the Inspector-General of Police has also deployed four CPs as Commissioners of Police for Abia, Lagos, Ebonyi, and Akwa-Ibom State Commands.

“The posting of these strategic managers reflects the mission of the Inspector-General of Police to strategically reposition the Police Force and ensure maximum utilization of human resources available to the Force.
“The IGP has, however, urged the new CPs of State Commands to ensure diligence in the discharge of their lawful duties and adopt innovations that could mitigate security challenges in their respective areas of responsibility.
