NPF Compulsorily retires four senior police officers

The Police Service Commission has compulsorily retired four Deputy Inspectors General of Police.

The commission said it took the decision “pursuant to the Third Schedule, Part 1 M, para A&B of the 1999 Constitution, reinforced with Section 6 of the Commissions (Establishment) Act 2001, para a, c, d, e, &f.”

The affected DIGs are Dan-Mallam Mohammed, Moses Jitiboh, Hafiz Inuwa and Adeleke Bode.

The PSC, in a statement by its spokesperson Ikechukwu Ani, said it took the decision following the refusal of the officials to resign after the appointment of their junior, Kayode Egbetokun, as the new Inspector General of Police.
