Supreme Court To Decide, Shettima’s ‘Double Nomination’ Today

There have been fears in some quarters over the implications of his retirement,and a replacement with a new person at a time the country is holding its Eeneral Elections.

However, responding to a question from State House correspondents on whether or not the IGP was retiring, the minister said: “I don’t know where you got your record, but by the provision of Police Act 2020, the IGP is now supposed to have a tenure of 4-year period and Mr. President has given him letter of appointment in that regard.

“So the issue of the IG going out during this election period does not arise.”

President Muhammadu Buhari appointed the then, DIG Baba, as the acting Inspector General of Police in April 6, 2021.

The Police council had confirmed him as the substantive IGP on June 2021.

There had been concerns over the expected retirement of the IGP, three Deputy Inspectors General of Police (DIGs), many Assistant Inspectors General of Police (AIGs), Commissioners of Police (CPs), and 290 other policemen in the first quarter of this year.
