Inspector General of Police (IGP), Sulieman Abba has redeployed 28 Assistant Inspectors General of Police to different states.
The redeployment is meant to account for the loss of personnel to retirement and recent promotions.
One of those affected with the
redeployment, is controversial AIG Joseph Mbu who was deployed from Zone
7, Abuja to Zone 2, Lagos.
This development was announced through a statement released on Tuesday in Abuja by the Force Spokesman, Emmanuel Ojukwu.
Abba charged officers to be responsible in the discharge of their constitutional responsibilities.
The redeployed officers are – Tambari Y.
Muhammed, Mohammed Abubakar, Aderenle Shinaba, Musa A. Daura, Johnson A
Ogunsakin, Patrick D. Dokumor, Christopher T. Dega, Usman Akila Gwarry
and Bala A Haassan.
Others are – Ikemefuna R. Okoye, Mohammed
J. Gana, Sule Mamman, Adisa B. Bolanta, Edgar Tam Nanakumo, Sabo Ringim
Ibrahim, Wilfred Eje Obute, Kalafite Helen Adeyemi, Ibrahim Maishanu,
Jubrin Olawale Adeniji, Lawal Tanko, Ballah Magaji Nasarawa, Yahaya
Garba Ardo, Buhari Tanko, Olufemi A. Adenaike, Umaru Abubakar Manko,
Irimiya F. Yerima and Mark Adamu Idakwo.
Mr. Mbu, who was in charge of Police Zone
7, which covers Abuja and the neighbouring states, was first the Rivers
State Police Commissioner until February, 2014, when he was posted to
the Federal Capital Territory, FCT.
Mbu was promoted to AIG in August 2014 after leaving Rivers state after months of troubles with governor Rotimi Amaechi.
Amaechi had blamed Mbu of doing patience Jonathan’s bidding and trying to control the state.
Mbu later declared himself as the lion who tamed Amaechi whom he described as a Tiger.
In Abuja, Mbu banned protests demanding
the release over 200 Chibok school girls abducted by Boko Haram, and
later ordered the arrest of a journalist.
The Police command also announced the promotion of Commissioner of Police, Adenike Fehintola Abuwa to the rank of AIG.
Mbu has been said to be heavily pro Jonathan, after his controversial problems with Rivers state governor, Rotimi Amaechi.
