Insecurity: IGP Disu orders redeployment of DIGs to respective zones

In a significant move aimed at bolstering the fight against insecurity, the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Kayode Disu, has ordered the immediate redeployment of Deputy Inspectors-General (DIGs) to their designated zones. This directive signals a strategic shift in the police leadership's approach to tackling the nation's security challenges.

The IGP emphasized that the redeployed DIGs are expected to foster closer working relationships with Assistant Inspectors-General of Police (AIGs) and Commissioners of Police (CPs) operating within their respective geographical areas. This collaborative framework is designed to streamline operations, improve intelligence gathering, and enhance response mechanisms to security threats.

This restructuring of command and control is anticipated to bring a more focused and coordinated effort to policing across the country. By placing senior officers directly in charge of specific zones, the police leadership aims to improve accountability and ensure that security strategies are effectively implemented at the grassroots level. The success of this redeployment will be crucial in the ongoing efforts to combat various forms of crime and ensure public safety.
