Why President Buhari Sacked IGP Adamu – Police Sources

The cabals are afraid secession is coming and anarchy is rising from the South. The immediate task of the new IGP will be to manage the rising insurrection in the Southern region.


President Muhammadu Buhari, influenced by the Aso Rock cabals, decided to end the tenure of the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, due to the embarrassing security deterioration in the South-East and South-South regions, particularly, top sources have revealed to SaharaReporters.

SaharaReporters learnt that some people close to President Muhammadu Buhari also believe Adamu, although coincidentally on a working visit to Imo State, has run out of ideas to deal with the ravaging secessionist groups threatening the unity of the country, the peace in the region and security personnel in the region.

Imo State, where Adamu went on Tuesday, has had the latest and arguably the most daring attacks by gunmen – whom he said were believed to be members of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra and the Eastern Security Network – working ultimately towards a secessionist agenda funded by foreign influences.

“That IGP Mohammed Adamu was sacked while on an operational visit to Imo State means a lot. He was in the good books of the Presidency and had only spent about two months out of his three-month extension. But the rising attacks in the South-East and South-South are what every powerbroker around Buhari frowns on and believes Adamu should go because he has run out of ideas.

“The cabals are afraid secession is coming and anarchy is rising from the South. The immediate task of the new IGP will be to manage the rising insurrection in the Southern region,” one of the sources revealed.

“The new IGP is from Yobe State, and he understands insurgency. He was the Head of Force Criminal Investigation Department. He has been given orders from the Presidency and he knows why exactly he has been brought and the urgent tasks before him,” another source stated.

“The attack in Imo was the last straw that broke the camel’s back. There was a conspiracy by some police officers to also sabotage Adamu into being ridiculed. He was no longer popular. The proximity of the prison facility and the state police headquarters that were breached in Owerri to other security agencies leaves so much to be investigated. The attack lasted for more than three hours and the attackers moved more than 1,000 inmates out of the vicinity without being repelled or arrested. That was sabotage and the Presidency was angry that Adamu could no longer manage the police,” the source added.

Muhammed Dingyadi, the Minister of Police Affairs, communicated the president’s replacement of Adamu with DIG Usman Alkali Baba, to State House correspondents at the Presidential Villa on Tuesday.

The president said Alkali should replace Mohammed Adamu with immediate effect.

Buhari had on February 4 extended the tenure of Adamu as the IGP for three months.

Adamu, who was appointed in 2019, had clocked the mandatory 35 years in service on February 1 and was expected to have been replaced by the president.

His tenure extension had elicited widespread criticism and a resultant lawsuit.

Maxwell Opara, a legal practitioner, had taken the IGP to court, contending that by virtue of section 215 of the Nigerian constitution and section 7 of the Nigeria Police Act, 2020, he cannot continue to function as the IGP, having retired as a serving member of the force.

In his defence, the IGP had told the Federal High Court that the new Nigeria Police Act gave him a four-year tenure, which would only lapse in either 2023 or 2024.

Supporting Adamu’s position, the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, had stated that the law permitted the IGP to remain in office.

You cannot fool all the people all the time.

Extending his tenure was unwise and a complete afront on all, leadership is by consent.
Re: Why President Buhari Sacked IGP Adamu – Police Sources by Lanretoye(m): 11:53pm On Apr 06, 2021
He should go to court and challenge his removal since the new police act can remain him till 2023 or 2024...failure never leaves without stigma.

What is the use of sacking someone whose tenure already expired, a president who does not at the right time to let his appointed officers leave when the ovation is loudest, he will wait until when their is no single usefulness in them anymore before letting them go, so of what usefulness is the sack

Imo police headquarters set ablaze.

NPF: Fish out the Igbos involved in the case (without investigation)

IPOB: we have no hand in it.


Nigerian Airforce jet exploded.

BokoHaram: we're responsible, this is your proof.

NAF: No you didn't do it. It was an accident.

Re: Why President Buhari Sacked IGP Adamu – Police Sources by SmartPolician: 6:07am On Apr 07, 2021
It's deeply worrisome that new Nigerian appointees don't even make efforts to improve their institutions. Instead, they are more interested in maintaining the status quo and destroying what's left of it. Where do Nigerians get that mentality from?

Nigeria's police and other government institutions get worse with each passing day. What legacy do their heads leave behind after spending 4-5 years in their offices? How come Nigerians don't think like this?

Kanu : Buhari is dead , an imposter from Sudan is in Aso rock
Ipob: we believe the director

Kemi: Nnamdi Kanu died and was buried secretly
Ipob : it's a lie we don't believe this

An IGP in today's Nigeria will give daily briefs to the CinC. So, there can't be course for a sack here. Unfortunately, the cabal is only playing games with our security.

Rather than a sack, what I see here is akin to a 'bishop sac'. shocked Chess players on the forum will understand what I mean.

The cabal only wants a stalemate.
