President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday officially swore in Olatunji Disu as the substantive Inspector-General of Police at a ceremony held at the Council Chambers, State House, Abuja.
The New Diplomat reports that Disu took the oath of office at about 2:53 pm, following the reading of his citation by the State House Director of Information and Public Relations, Mr. Abiodun Oladunjoye.
The ceremony was witnessed by Vice President Kashim Shettima, cabinet members, and other dignitaries.
Tinubu arrived at the Council Chambers at 2:48 pm, after which the National Anthem was rendered, followed by the presentation of citations for the appointees.
Immediately after Disu’s swearing-in, the President also swore in newly appointed commissioners of the Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission and the Federal Civil Service Commission.
The ceremony preceded the commencement of the Federal Executive Council meeting, which began at 03:01 pm.
The FCSC officials include Prof. Ngbea Gabriel (Benue) and Omoregie Idahagbon (Edo).
RMAFC commissioners were Abubakar Wamakko (Sokoto), Sen. Marafa Abba (Taraba), Ahmed Waziri (Adamawa), Hadizatu Mustapha (Borno), Helen Bob (Bayelsa), and Oladele Gboyega (Osun).
The swearing-in ceremony comes after Disu’s confirmation as substantive IGP by a unanimous endorsement of his appointment by the Nigeria Police Council on Monday.
