New IGP: The dodgy and dicey dangers of delay
IGP Mohammed Abubakar Adamu
Thu Feb 04 2021
Since Monday, February 1, 2021, when the tenure of the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Adamu Mohammed, officially came to an end, having attained the mandatory 35 years in service, Louis Edet House, the Force Headquarters of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF), and the entire country have been thrown into suspense, confusion and palpitations.
The suspense and confusion are due to the uncertainty of what would happen. Would Adamu’s tenure be extended by the president, or is the country going to get a new IGP? Silence, particularly the kind that stirs suspense, is playing out as a critical tool of PMB’s style of leadership.
