IGP Not Retiring, To Complete 4-Year Term – Federal Govt InspectorgeneralofpoliceIGP
The Minister of Police Affairs, Mohammed Dingyadi, who disclosed this to State House Correspondents after the Federal Executive Council meeting of the year, explained that the Police Act 2020 has changed the rules for an IGP’s retirement.
Recall that there were reports that the IGP would be clocking 60 years on March 1, 2023, and would be expected to honour the rule that mandates public servants to go on retirement at 60 years. However, responding to a question from correspondents on whether or not the IGP would be retiring indeed as expected, Dingyadi said, “I don’t know where you got your record, but let me say that by the provision of the Police Act 2020, the IG is now supposed to have a kind of four-year period and Mr. President has already given him letter of appointment in that regard.President Muhammadu Buhari appointed the then DIG Baba as the acting Inspector General of Police in April 6, 2021.
