The Presidency has reacted to the viral report of the appointment of Ibrahim Zanna as the Acting Inspector-General of Police.
Report had gone viral on Tuesday that Zanna has been asked to take over in acting capacity the police force following the expiration of the service of the current IG, Adamu Mohammed.
When contacted by Nigerian Lawyer for comment, the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the President, Mr. Femi Adesina, simply said: “I don’t have any information yet on that (new IGP).”
Meanwhile, indications emerged Tuesday night that President Muhammadu Buhari has asked the Inspector-General of Police Mohammed Adamu to hand over.
It was learnt that the IG was told of his fate after President Buhari’s arrival.
A top source said: “The IGP has been asked by the President to handover.
“Adamu was waiting for the presidential directive. He would have left on Monday but it will be discourteous to have exited without a clear-cut directive from the President and Commander-In-Chief.
“I am aware Adamu was yesterday putting finishing touches to his handover note.”
