**Breaking News: President Tinubu Appoints New Acting IGP, Disu** In a ceremony that took place at the State House in Abuja, President Bola Tinubu has officially sworn in and decorated Acting Inspector-General of Police, Mr Tunji Disu as his new head of the Nigerian Police Force. The event witnessed the presence of top government and security officials, including the National Security Adviser, Chief of Staff to the President, and the Secretary to the Government of the Federation. This development comes as a surprise, given that Disu was scheduled to retire in just 48 days, on April 13, 2026, when he would have reached the mandatory retirement age of 60 years. However, the amended Police Act, which allows the Inspector-General of Police to serve a four-year tenure regardless of age, has paved the way for Disu's extended tenure. Disu's journey to the top was marked by his dedication and hard work, having served in various strategic roles, including Commissioner of Police in Rivers State and the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja. His expertise at the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) Annex, Alagbon, Lagos, also earned him a spot as Assistant Inspector-General of Police. The decoration ceremony was a significant moment for Disu, who was pinned with his new insignia by President Tinubu himself. The President took the opportunity to commend Disu's predecessor, Kayode Egbetokun, for his service to the nation. As Disu assumes his new role, Nigerians are eagerly awaiting the impact he will make on the country's security landscape. Disu's appointment has sparked mixed reactions, with many questioning the timing and implications of his extended tenure. While some see it as a necessary move to address the country's security challenges, others are skeptical about the motives behind his appointment. As the new Acting IGP, Disu has his work cut out for him, and Nigerians will be watching closely to see how he navigates the complexities of his new role. In conclusion, the appointment of Mr Tunji Disu as Acting Inspector-General of Police is a significant development in Nigeria's security landscape. As Disu assumes his new role, Nigerians are hoping for positive change and a renewed commitment to addressing the country's security challenges. Only time will tell if Disu's extended tenure will yield the desired results.
