Captain Adedayo Ogunleye, a renowned Information System Expert, has hailed the appointment of Tunji Disu as the new Inspector-General of Police (IGP). According to Ogunleye, Disu's appointment is a testament to his distinguished service and constant demonstration of purposeful leadership qualities.
Ogunleye, who made these remarks in Lagos, noted that Disu's professionalism, unblemished leadership, and unwavering dedication to duty have earned him this recognition. He recalled Disu's impactful leadership of the Rapid Response Squad in Lagos, his exceptional performance as Commissioner of Police in Rivers State and the FCT, and his notable successes in combating insecurity.
Ogunleye expressed confidence that Disu's visionary leadership, courage, and dedication to duty will enable him to build a Nigeria Police Force capable of tackling any security challenge. He commended President Tinubu for discovering Disu's competence and integrity, and wished him a successful tenure as IGP.
President Tinubu's decision to appoint Tunji Disu as IGP is a welcome development, but it also raises questions about the leadership qualities of the previous IGP. Disu's track record of exceptional excellence and ethical leadership is undeniable, but can he replicate this at the national level? The Nigeria Police Force has a long history of corruption and inefficiency, and Disu's ability to reform the institution will be put to the test. As he assumes office, Disu must demonstrate his commitment to transparency, accountability, and the rule of law. Nigerians are watching, and they expect nothing but the best from their new IGP.
