<p>By Yusuf Danjuma Yunusa</p>
<p>President Bola Tinubu has officially sacked Kayode Egbetokun from his position as Inspector General of Police. The announcement was confirmed by senior police officials and sources within the Police Service Commission</p>
<p>Tunji Disu, currently the Assistant Inspector General in charge of the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) Annex in Alagbon, Lagos, has been named as Egbetokun’s successor.</p><div class="qlOtR9vw" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>A source revealed, “Egbetokun was at the Presidential Villa yesterday and was instructed to prepare his handover notes. He has likely done so already and will hand over to Tunji Disu.” The source further described Egbetokun as “incompetent and power-drunk,” with many scandals marking his tenure. The President reportedly advised him to step down and focus on treatment for kidney-related health issues.</p>

<p>The decision to remove Egbetokun has reportedly been met with widespread approval among police officers. “Police officers jubilated when the news broke on Monday. Although the First Lady, Remi Tinubu, reportedly wanted him to remain, the President was resolute on the matter,” a source added.</p>

<p>Egbetokun’s time as IGP was marred by controversy, including his extended stay beyond the mandatory retirement age and years of service, sparking debates over violations of police service regulations. Allegations of nepotism and favoritism also dogged his tenure, with investigations highlighting rapid and questionable promotions within his close circle, particularly involving Bukola Yemisi Kuti, his Principal Staff Officer, who critics claim had a personal relationship with him.</p>
<p>Further controversy arose from reports linking â¦100 million from Anambra State’s security vote to Victor, Egbetokun’s son. Critics raised alarms about the possible diversion of state funds for private benefit, allegations that were met with aggressive legal actions by police authorities against journalists and activists who reported on these issues.</p>
