The event originally slated for 2p.m. at the IGP Conference Hall, Force Headquarters in Abuja, was, however, yet to take off as of the time of filing this report.
The former IGP resigned from office on Tuesday, citing family reasons.
His resignation was immediately accepted by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who appointed AIG Disu of the Federal Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) Annex, Alagbon, Lagos, as his replacement.
With this development, eight senior Deputy Inspectors-General (DIGs) who are part of the force management team are expected to proceed on compulsory retirement.
Disu, who was the Assistant Inspector General of Police in charge of the Federal Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) Annex, Alagbon, Lagos, was appointed as acting IGP by President Bola Tinubu on Tuesday.
