The new acting Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris has written President Muhammadu Buhari in order to retire 30 senior officers of the Nigerian Police Force.
The officers who are of the rank of Assistant Inspector General (AIG) of police, were said to have been marked out for immediate disengagement for some reasons still unclear.
According to ThisDay, efforts by some AIGs to greet the new IGP hit the rocks as they were barred from seeing him.
The paper quoted an anonymous source as saying, “There is serious tension at the Police Headquarters in Abuja. We have heard that the new acting IG wants to retire both his seniors and course mates.
”On Friday, he wrote to the presidency, through the Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari, and it was approved and forwarded to the desk of the President for final approval.
“According to what Idris wrote, his reason why he asked for their retirement is that he cannot work with them. He said he wants to, in all sense of the word, take charge of the police.
“With this move, there is a tendency to make 14 Commissioners of Police AIGs since the available and compulsory vacancy for AIGs is 26".
