The Acting Inspector-General of Police, Tunji Disu, has arrived at the Presidential Villa in Abuja for his decoration by President Bola Tinubu.
Disu, until his appointment on Tuesday, served as an Assistant Inspector-General of Police (AIG) in charge of the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID), Alagbon.

He arrived at the Presidential Villa alongside family members for his decoration to the new rank of Inspector-General of Police.
In line with the provisions of the Police Act 2020, President Tinubu is expected to convene a meeting of the Nigeria Police Council to formally consider the appointment of AIG Disu as substantive Inspector-General of Police, after which his name will be forwarded to the Senate for confirmation.
The development follows the resignation of the former IGP, Kayode Egbetokun service to the Nigeria Police Force and the nation.
The President acknowledged his dedication, professionalism, and steadfast commitment to strengthening internal security architecture during his tenure.
He expressed confidence that AIG Disu’s experience, operational expertise, and demonstrated leadership capacity will provide steady and focused direction for the Nigeria Police Force during this critical period.
In line with the Police Act 2020, the President will shortly convene the Nigeria Police Council to formally consider Disu’s appointment as substantive IGP, after which his name will be transmitted to the Senate for confirmation.
