 *DIGs to be retired || *AIGs to be considered for DIG positions
Assistant Inspector General, AIG Ibrahim Idris, was on Tuesday announced as the acting Inspector General of Police, IGP, to replace retired Solomon Arase.

The six Deputy Inspectors-General of Police, DIGs, who served under Arase are to be retired.

Also, 10 Assistant Inspectors General, AIGs, of Police under the former dispensation are senior of the new IGP. Those who are his seniors are:
former AIG zone 2 Lagos, Ibrahim Manko, AIG in charge Force Secretary; Patrick Dokumor, AIG in charge Zone 7, Abuja; Balla Nasarawa, Tambari Mohammed; Bala Hassan, AIG in charge Zone 2, Lagos, Yahaya Ardo, Musa Daura, Baba Adisa Bolanta, Usman Gwary and AIG Tunde Ogunsakin. 

According to Vanguard, it was gathered that the status of this set of Assistant Inspectors General of Police, would be decided by the Federal Government, as regards who among them would to be appointed Deputy Inspectors Generals of Police, or be asked to proceed on retirement. 

The appointment of the DIGs will, however, reflect the six geo-political zones of the country.

Speaking on what Nigerians should expect from him, the acting IGP pledged to make the streets of Nigeria safe, saying “honestly, under my collective leadership, the Nigerian police is going to be governed by internationally recognized core values of policing everywhere in the world. 

"That is the issue of integrity and accountability, issue of respect for diversity, issue of compassion, issues of ensuring that our streets, our neighbourhoods, our communities remain safe. 

“We are going to do everything possible to ensure that we provide the best service to this country.”
