Off point.
I could he have helped Onnoghen whe he was not the president as at that time? For the position of IGP, you need somebody who is trusted &reliable and would not partake in coup plot against you.Hence,IGP position is not an exclusive right of any senior officer,it is purely at the discretion of the president.Why do you think GEJ appointed Late Gen. Azazi from Bayelsa as NSA and Late oronto Douglas from Bayelsa into his team? GEJ appointed Kenneth Minima as chief of Army staff from Rivers state and Ekpeyong from Akwa ibom/ Cross Rivers as DG,DSS?Were there no qualified people from other zones then?

R.I.P 🕯️🕯️🕯️DIG Moses Jitoboh.
He was deprived of being the Inspector General of Police twice, simply because he is from Bayelsa State.
Buhari refused to appoint him as IGP, despite being the most qualified senior officer judging by the 2020 police act which requires the next IGP to have a compulsory 4 years of service left, before he or she can be appointed as IGP.
Jitoboh had 9 years of service left, but Buhari appointed Alkali Baba IGP, who had just 2 years left.

When IGP Alkali retired in 2023, after an illegal extension of tenure, the only two senior police officers qualified for one to be appointed as IGP judging from the 2020 police act were DIG Frank Mba, who had 4 years, and DIG Moses Jitoboh, who had 6 years. For context, in 2020 Frank Mba was a commissioner of Police, so he wasn't qualified amongst the top ranking police officers suitable to be appointed as IGP by then. But between 2020, and 2023, he had a double promotion, that qualified him for such an appointment in 2023. But Tinubu ignored both Frank Mba and Moses Jitoboh, to appoint Kayode Egbetokun who had just one year left in service as IGP.

He ignored Frank Mba who had 4 years and Moses Jitoboh who had 6 years of service left.
Because Moses Jitoboh was a senior DIG before Kayode Egbetokun, he was compulsorily retired after Egbetokun was appointed as IGP.
He is supposed to officially retire from police in 2029, but was kicked out before his time. He had good 5 years left even before his death today.

This is what ethnicity and tribalism causes for a nation. The best and most qualified are ignored intentionally

WesleyPepper:
Don’t mind those clowns
Tinubu hasn’t done anything different from his predecessors.


Only OBJ appointed people from other zones into sensitive security positions. Even then , OBJ was wise enough to avoid the Fulani /Muslim North for such positions 😂😂.

God bless Bola Tinubu

Rutherford2019:
I hate the spirit of self pity..
When Jonathan was president he appointed A Kano man as IGP then the SE was crying for marginalization..now SE and SS refused to use their opportunities and someone is using theirs and they are complaining..
Use your chances and stop blaming others when they're using theirs

It’s ironic how numbskulls like you long for life in developed countries but endorse the destruction of developmental systems back home.
The post clearly stated that the Police Act was violated to deprive this man of his deserved IG role solely because he hails from Bayelsa State, yet your tribalistic mindset finds no fault in that

id4sho:
Obj actually dealt with Hausa/Fulani Muslims, he knew the game

Jonathan did the same when selecting his Army chiefs. We don't have to support Tinubu on everything. I'm not a fan of his leadership style but this trash you posted makes no sense.

His rightful position?,so a class captain in a classroom is a rightful position or entitlement?.instead of you to wish the dead eternal rest you are using his death to constitute nuisance and idiocy.the way some of you reason self makes me wonder if they use sense in the grave and thats why some of you don't like to use it while you are alive.
So the position of the IGP is for the most senior in the police?,you better sick knowledge if you lack it.

If it was about the most senior in any official hierarchy & not competency. There might be misconceptions about this topic.

HausaIgboYoruba:
for him to have six years left in service as a DIG, shows he had enjoyed tribalism of accelerated career during the Jonathan presidency, so no body is clean. Mba had double promotions, what happened to other police officers from the southeast who were legitimately denied promotion coz of MBA? police management team is based on federal character

immortalcrown:
I am not a supporter of Tinubu but I will never let my disapproval of his personality drive me crazy and stupid like this poster.

Why is the name of Tinubu repeatedly mentioned in the news of this man's death? Would the IG position have immortalised the man? Wouldn't the man have still died at his appointed time even if he was made the IG?

If you are genuinely concerned that Tinubu deprived the man of the position of IG, why didn't you talk about it separately and before the man's death?

Stop fooling yourself by saying you're not a Tinumbu supporter.

Habbeyy:
But you claimed that Buhari ignored him to appoint Frank Mba. So are Buhari and Mba from the same region? I don't see any tribalism there, it would have been fair if you claimed it was based on connection and corruption.
