IGP Orders Redeployment of 600 Officers in Lagos Zone 2

Share this article

Inspector-General of Police Olatunji Disu has ordered the immediate redeployment of over 600 police personnel from the Zone 2 Police Command Headquarters in Onikan, Lagos. The move is designed to address manpower imbalances across the country, as several divisional and community commands remain severely understaffed while the zonal headquarters had accumulated personnel beyond its operational requirements. While some affected officers leaked news of the transfer to social media claiming victimization, security experts have backed the IGP, noting that such routine administrative postings are essential for boosting police visibility and effectiveness at the community level.
