Aiyewumi said this while speaking exclusively with our correspondent on Monday.
The PUNCH reports Ribadu, a retired Assistant Inspector General of Police was appointed by President Bola Tinubu on June 19, 2023.
He replaced Major General Babagana Monguno who was appointed in July 2015 by former President Muhammadu Buhari. Aiyewumi said Ribadu was worth the position without a military background, adding that his achievements as the former boss of the Economic Financial Crimes Commission were laudable. “I think he is qualified to hold that position. It does not matter whether he has no military background. All know his great achievements when he was the head of the EFCC. His name became a household name. Why, because of his activities as the head of the organisation.”
