A statement from the Lagos state police command has indicated that the acting Inspector General of Police, Adamu Mohammed, was the one who stopped the redeployment of the Commissioner of Police in the state, Edgal Imohimi.



Imohimi was meant to hand over to the new Commissioner, Kayode Egbetokun, today January but the handing over was stopped after a call from Abuja.



A statement released by the command's spokesperson, Chike Oti, this evening, says the acting IGP ordered that status quo be maintained with regards to who leads the state command. Read the statement below

'

'The Lagos State Police Command wishes to inform the general public that the Inspector General of Police has graciously suspended the planned redeployment of the Commissioner of Police, Lagos State, Edgal Imohimi, from the command.

The IGP, in his wisdom, said the status quo should be maintained.
The CP, who is well known for his discipline and respect for orders, was about handing over to Mr Kayode Egbetokun on Tuesday when he received the directive to suspend the ceremony and await further instructions.

As a command, we thought it necessary to inform the people of Lagos that the CP, Edgal Imohimi, going by this development, remains the head of the police in the state.

While humbled by the decision, the CP wishes to assure the people of Lagos that their safety and security remains his priority.

Good way to start

Kudos to the new igp

"...The party further advices the new police boss to remove all templates of election rigging contained in the hand-over note that will be presented to him by Idris Ibrahim.

....Bastardization of promotion in the Nigerian Police under the last IGP, where officers due for promotion were denied and only those endorsed by a cabal or who have enough money to buy their way through were promoted..."

Perhaps the new IGP is following the afore suggestion or the new development is a sudden twist.
Meanwhile, Idris is the most useless IGP ever seen in Nigeria.

Redeploying a commissioner of police because of an agbero that was stabbed is the height of it all.
Former igp idris is a big disgrace to Africa

He must hand over

Idris think he can play reluctant and get away with it.

I see professionalism in the new IGP.

Evil and excesses of idris will locate him even as he retires. Circumstances of the chief returning officer of Inec in 2015 election in kano, is a karma patiently waiting.
Na why most of this top uniformed guys, no deh get better kids.

Wailers love for the new IGP will last as long as the next election the PDP will lose, they will soon go for his head with full force.

Im glad PDP love the new IGP. Theyve been praising him all day.
We dont want to hear stories when he send guys to go pick up Saraki o.

The new IGP is a seasoned hunter.

He's baiting them before teaching them the lessons of their lives.
