Adejobi stated that IGP Baba ordered the posting and redeployment of eight CPs to State Commands and Formations across the country for operational and administrative effectiveness.
He listed the newly posted/redeployed senior officers as:
i. CP GOMBE COMMAND – CP ETIM OQUA EFFIOM

Adejobi added, “The IGP has assured the nation that the posting and redeployment of Senior Police Officers, which is regular in order to align with the Force’s policy on strategic human capacity deployment, will further help in driving the IGP’s policing vision targeted at improving policing services across the country.
“Similarly, the Force wishes to urge members of the public to disregard false, unfounded, and misleading news being peddled that the former Commissioner of Police in charge of Kano State, CP Abubakar Lawal, fdc, was redeployed from Kano on allegations of corruption. This is to re-emphasize that postings in the Force is a normal routine geared towards strengthening human capacity and knowledge diffusion for the betterment of the Force.
“The posting and the redeployment of the Senior Police Officers is with immediate effect.”
