The nation’s Inspector General of Police, Idris Ibrahim seems to have risen above the law of the land and control of the president who appointed him. This is as extremely worrisome as it is setting a terrible precedence in the country.

What is particularly curious about the recent actions of the Inspector General of Police is the temerity with which he had repeatedly called the bluff of the Senate institution and disobeyed orders given to him by President Muhammadu Buhari.

It must be agreed that the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris would not have ordinarily behaved this way if not for some hidden reasons that are perhaps not known to the public. But one thing that is incontrovertible is the fact that the police boss has been compensated with the position of Inspector General.

It can also be concluded that the same hidden reason that is responsible for the now seeming “above the law” disposition of the Police IG must have also informed his appointment in the first instance.

Meanwhile, record has it that Ibrahim Idris was in 2015 the Police Commissioner in charge of Kano state when he superintended the delivery of millions of votes to the APC.

He was still the same police boss in-charge of Kano state when the INEC Commissioner for the state was burnt to death with his wife and two children in a rather unexplainable circumstance. It will be recalled that President Buhari garnered nearly two million votes in the most populous northern state during the 2015 presidential election.

Meanwhile, curious but disturbing questions need to be asked on the circumstances surrounding the appointment of Ibrahim Idris as the IGP in the first instance.

What could have led to the to compulsorily retirement of 21 AIGs and 7 DIGs just for Ibrahim Idris to become the IGP ? What other factor could have been responsible for the unprecedented promotions given to Ibrahim Idris from the rank of Commissioner of Police in 2015 to Assistant Inspector General, to Deputy Inspector General and Inspector General of Police all from year 2015 to 2016?

We also need to know what could have made the IGP disobeyed the instruction of the president without any consequence till date ?

Another probing question is what was the good quality seen in Ibrahim Idris by President Buhari at the time of his appointment that was not found in any of his compulsorily retired 28 seniors? We need not be told that Idris had been merely compensated for his hatchet job in the 2015 presidential election held in Kano and the subsequent cover-up in the investigation of circumstances leading to and surrounding the death of the INEC Commissioner.

It is most regrettable that Ibrahim Idris has now constituted himself into an authority that cannot be questioned; as a result has become so emboldened to have conveniently disobeyed several Senate invitations. It is particularly very sad that the man even feels at ease in the face of mindless bloodletting across the country.

However, no sinner can hide behind one finger for too long. The dirty past of the IGP has been exposed and the earlier he is relieved of his position, the faster solutions could be found to the reign of impunity and ceaseless killings across the land. Time is now for President Buhari to remove the IGP from office and safe the nation from further gruesome killings and maiming.

African Trump

Indeed a killer cop. IGP's relationship with Bubu should be investigated

Long overdue..

Not just about removing him, the process that brought him to IGP position should be queried also, his role in the incessant killings in Nigeria should also be ascertained..
His whereabouts when he was deployed to benue should also be examined..
Then this new wave of every buhari perceived enemies turning assassins over night should also be explained..

And most of all his transmission transfusion sorry I mean transfiguration transmission should also be transmission with him as he awaits his dullardic master in daura transmission center..

I'm for the motion.

I think so...........

He is obviously incompetent and only compensated with this role...

However, happy the author of this piece is not in Nigeria, he would have been transmitted with full transmission (sorry sir) to SARS detention!!

Long overdue..

Medicine after death. When baba don enter na im Una dey write this one

Buhari will not remove him. He retired over 21 AIG's in other to make this commissioner an IG. He rigged election in kano in favor of Buhari when he was posted to kano to oversee 2015 election. IGP came as a reward. Why do you think he has been behaving the way he has without fear. Flouted a direct order of the President, nothing happened. Refused severally to appear with a Senate summon, nothing happened. I'm sure Buhari will want him to remain there at least until after the Elections. May God help this country.

mtcheeeeeeeeeeeeeew

So,this writer is saying the IGP should be transmitted?

Nooooooooooooo, but i strongly believe it's time to change his boss rather.

We don't need him changed alone we need him sacked, fired and sent into exile from Nigeria

E. H=Enemies of Happiness, can't u live those jokers/comedians @ a better sit for us, before it was only Patience Jonathan but now we have alot of them n u are saying this

He should be retired so as to keep his family going with pension and other entitlements.

yarimo:
mtcheeeeeeeeeeeeeew

You quoted all these just to hiss?

So annoying!!!

Long over due.

Before it was the NSCDC man(OGA at the top)

Now, its IGP man (Transmission)

D earlier we begin to understand that this men(I mean d service chiefs) are there just to guard buhari in his retirement office, the better for us..




These guys are buharis parley parleys and buhari is jst using Nigeria to flex retirement

Na so I c am!


Bt seriously, op isnt far from the truth

Only IGP? ....please change The presidency too! Is it just me or does 2019 seem farther than normal? I just can't wait.

its an open secret, its a matter of time. I wish bubu long life to reap all the bloodshed he sowed! They massacre a whole family to rig election in kano. A kii gbin alubosa ki o hu efo

Long overdue. Transmit him into retirement.

Mehn the man is highly compromised..
NIGERIA loosing their respect day by day

Everything about this present Government is all about from one episode to another.

Lols... Buhari fans won't be happy with this news..... But I wonder the mumu that is still supporting his buhaha

you don't treat a terminal illness by applying a soothing balm.

the core of this ineptitude lies with buhari... that's the ass that needs some kicking

Lol. As right as this article maybe, nothing is going to happen. You see, Nigeria took a few steps forward in the last 10 years but ran countless step backwards in the last 2 years. Have you noticed that public opinion doesn't matter anymore? I remember several ministers that were removed due to controversies that surrounded their actions even though they seemed to be doing well eg. Prof Barth Nnaji, Stella Odua even police IGs were not spared no matter how short they have stayed in office. But what so we have now? Obvious cases of incompetence, impunity and cluelessnes have become a norm and the government doesn't see any need to address issues provided it doesn't affect loyalty. It is well

Imo..... Long overdue.... Disobeyed his employer and fluffed his lines to many times



You wonder if he attends all those foreign and local training of senior officers and strategist of the Nigerian Armed Forces

Buratai, Idris and K'yiari were appointed for who they are to the Fulani empire, they were not choosen on merit. There is a grand plan, and some of the people who can carry out that grand plan were the gentlemen I mentioned. It was necessary that they head certain sensitive positions to carry out that agenda.

It is called Nepotism, and I am surprise when Nigerians cry all over social media about competence. You do not appoint someone to work with you without knowing his core competence. Buhari has an agenda to fulfill and there are certain people who can help him achieve that, and he needed positions these people can handle and he moved these gentlemen to head the institutions.

The plan must be executed, even if Buhari is out of line, they are the ones who tell the President that the intended mission can only work this way or that way, even if it means disobeying the President, in the end, the President is satisfied, because his Team, aka Cabal, are working towards an Agenda.
