The acting Inspector-General of Police, Tunji Disu, assumed duty on Wednesday.
This followed his decoration by President Bola Tinubu earlier in the day.
Kayode Egbetokun, who was appointed on June 19, 2023, resigned his position on Tuesday, citing family reasons, paving the way for Disu’s appointment.
Disu took his first salute as Inspector-General from members of the Quarter Guard and police officers at the Force Headquarters after returning from the Villa at about 4:25 p.m.
Egbetokun and Disu then proceeded to the official handover ceremony.
Egbetokun, dressed in a blue suit, white shirt, and tie, was accompanied by Deputy Inspectors-General of Police.
