IGP Orders Ondo Police Commissioner to Restore Agboola’s Security Details
In the midst of impeachment fever in Ondo State, the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, has ordered the State Commissioner of Police, Bolaji Salami, to immediately restore the security details of the embattled state’s deputy governor, Agboola Ajayi, who defected from the ruling All Progressive Congress, APC to the People’s Democratic Party, PDP recently.
The directive was contained in a letter issued to the Ondo Police Commissioner through the Deputy Inspector General of Police, Department of Operations, Force headquarters Abuja.
The letter with Reference No CB: 2002/DOPS/FHQ/ABJ/VOL/77/168 was signed on behalf of the IGP through Mr Austine Agbonlahor, Assistant Inspector-General of Police.
Ajayi had last week Wednesday raised the alarm that security details attached to him and his office were withdrawn by the Nigeria Police Force in the state.
He specifically accused the Commissioner of Police of working on the instructions of Governor Rotimi Akeredolu to withdraw the officers.
