There was a mild drama on Thursday at the State Command of the Nigeria
Police headquarters, Lokoja, as the incoming Commissioner of Police,
Esa Sunday Ogbu, was not available for handover.
The outgoing CP, Ali Jaga came to the office in company of AIG of Police Zone 8, expecting to see the new CP.
It was gathered that the new CP had earlier been threatened a day to
his resumption by the Kogi Governor, Bello, who reportedly told him to leave the state.
The new CP, as a result of the intimidation, left for Abuja Thursday morning.
Efforts to speak with the Force PPRO, Jimoh Moshood was not successful as he did not pick calls put across in his two lines.
The Inspector General of Police, IGP Ibrahim K. Idris, ordered
the immediate removal of Kogi State Commissioner of Police, CP Ali Janga
over questionable circumstances that led to escape of two key suspects
in a matter involving Senator Dino Melaye.
The new CP, Ogbu was Commissioner of Police, Federal Operations, Force Headquarters, Abuja before his posting to Kogi State.
