The Nigeria Police Force Liaison and Consultant to the United States Embassy in Nigeria, Mr. Mogaji Busayo, has congratulated the Inspector General of Police, IGP Tunji Disu, following his appointment by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR.

Describing the appointment as timely and strategic, Mr. Busayo stated that IGP Disu’s extensive background in operations and administration aligns with the present needs of the Nigeria Police Force. He noted that the President’s characterization of the IGP as an operational police officer is both a recognition of his field expertise and a clear mandate to strengthen operational readiness nationwide. According to him, this also calls for deeper collaboration between the Force and key stakeholders to enhance efficiency, intelligence-led policing, and public trust.

Mr. Busayo further described the recent inauguration of the State Police Implementation Committee by IGP Disu as a significant step toward structural reform and decentralized operational effectiveness. He said the initiative demonstrates proactive leadership aimed at repositioning the Force to respond more effectively to evolving security challenges.

Recalling previous engagements with the IGP, including collaborative efforts on the Special Intervention Squad (SIS) supported by the United States Government, Mr. Busayo emphasized that reform-driven partnerships remain critical to advancing capacity development, specialized training, modern equipment acquisition, and institutional strengthening.

He reaffirmed his commitment to mobilizing credible local and international partners to support initiatives that will enhance professionalism, accountability, and service delivery across commands, expressing optimism that under IGP Disu’s leadership, the Nigeria Police Force will record measurable progress in reform and operational efficiency.
