IGP Disu Orders Immediate Transfer of 132 Police Officers in Edo State
In a massive move to reorganize and strengthen internal security, the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Olatunji Rilwan Disu, has ordered the immediate transfer of 132 police officers out of the Edo State Command.
This major redeployment comes amid a broader national strategy to enhance leadership capacity and operational efficiency across various state commands.
The Details of the Shake-Up
The transfer affects a wide range of personnel and is part of a series of strategic postings aimed at injecting fresh energy into regional security structures.
Mass Movement: Over 130 officers are being moved from Edo to other formations across the country.
Strategic Reorganization: The IGP has emphasized that these moves are essential for maintaining a “more effective command structure” and improving public safety.
This development follows similar “strangulation operations” and mass transfers in nearby states, such as the recent redeployment of 50 senior officers from the Delta State Command following high-profile security incidents.
