Police Reforms: IGP Disu Restructures Monitoring Unit, Appoints New Head Of The Unit

The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Olatunji Rilwan Disu, psc(+), NPM, has approved the comprehensive restructuring of the Police Monitoring Unit as part of ongoing institutional reforms aimed at enhancing operational effectiveness, strengthening internal oversight, and reinforcing discipline across the Nigeria Police Force.

The restructuring is necessitated by the need to refocus the Unit on its core mandate, address identified operational inefficiencies, and reposition it as a credible and effective internal accountability mechanism within the Force.

As part of the reorganisation, the Unit has been streamlined and strengthened to enhance proactive monitoring, intelligence-driven inspections, and real-time oversight of police personnel and operations across Commands, Formations, and Departments. The restructured framework also harmonises key investigative and monitoring functions in line with the Force’s reform agenda.

Consequently, the Inspector-General of Police has approved a leadership transition within the Unit, with Deputy Commissioner of Police Aliyu Abubakar appointed as Head of the Police Monitoring Team to oversee the operations of the restructured Unit.

Prior to his appointment, he served as Deputy Commissioner of Police, State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID), in both the FCT and Rivers State Police Commands, where he played critical roles in high-profile investigations. During this period, he worked closely with state leadership to modernize investigative techniques and strengthen operational effectiveness. He is widely regarded by peers and stakeholders as a community-oriented and professional officer, noted for promoting transparency and engagement in policing.

ADC Slams Tinubu Over Failure To Appoint Ambassadors

Fight Terrorists, Not Opposition, ADC Tells Tinubu

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has criticised President Bola Tinubu over his declaration that he is prepared to “fight to the finish” politically, saying he should focus on defeating terrorists rather than the opposition.
Eereporter.com

In a statement signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, the party said it was disturbing that the President made the remarks during a meeting with members of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Nigeria (CBCN) while the country continues to grapple with worsening insecurity, including the recent attack on Naridon village in Kaduna State that claimed at least 30 lives.

Describing Tinubu as Nigeria’s “Statement Maker-in-Chief,” the ADC argued that the President has become “a commentator” on insecurity but “a combatant” against the opposition, accusing his administration of responding to attacks with condemnations rather than decisive action.

The full statement read:

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) is deeply concerned that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu chose his meeting with members of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Nigeria (CBCN) at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, to declare that he was prepared to “fight to the finish” politically, even as Nigerians continue to live under the shadow of terrorism, banditry and violent crime.

This is our message: Mr President, the fight Nigerians elected you to lead is not against the opposition. It is against the terrorists, kidnappers and armed criminals who continue to kill innocent citizens and destabilise communities across the country.

Only hours before the President’s remarks, at least 30 people were killed in a late-night attack on Naridon village in Kauru Local Government Area of Kaduna State. Homes were burnt. Families were displaced. Another community was left devastated by an attack that should never have happened.

Yet, the President, whose primary duty is to protect and preserve Nigerian lives has chosen instead to serve as Nigeria’s Statement Maker-in-Chief. After every attack comes another statement. After every massacre comes another condemnation. After every tragedy comes another expression of sympathy. Nigerians did not elect a Commander-in-Chief to become the nation’s chief issuer of condolence statements.

What is equally disturbing is that when it comes to insecurity, President Tinubu is a commentator. However, when it comes to the opposition, he is a combatant. Mr President should reserve decisive words and actions like “fight to the finish” to defeat the terrorists, bandits and kidnappers who continue to shed innocent Nigerian blood, not the opposition who want to save Nigerians from his misrule and failure.

Instead of preparing for another political fight, President Tinubu should be leading the fight against those who have turned communities across the country into killing fields and forced countless Nigerians from their homes. That is the battle the country expects him to win.

After more than three years in office, this administration cannot point to a security record that justifies political bravado. Given its catastrophic failure to secure lives and property, one would have expected the President to be reflecting on his record, not digging in politically.

ADC, Tinubu

The ADC believes elections are won by performance, not by declarations of political toughness. The President’s real opponents are not the opposition. They are terrorism, banditry, kidnapping and the growing insecurity that continues to claim innocent Nigerian lives. Those are the enemies he was elected to fight, and as things stand today, they remain undefeated.
