OPINON: “History Has Memory” - Folorunso Fatai Adisa.


Frank Mbah & Tunji Disu.

For the record, Frank Mba was a Cadet Inspector in training while Tunji Disu was a Cadet ASP, in the Course 17/1992. Effectively, AIG Tunji Disu was Mba’s senior in the Force until Mba benefited from the accelerated promotions facilitated by the Federal Character principle.

A clear example of this trajectory occurred in January 2019, when then-Acting IGP Mohammed Adamu appointed ACP Mba as the Force Public Relations Officer to replace DCP Moshood Jimoh. 

Today, Olorundare Moshood Jimoh serves as the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, while Mba (who was once a rank below him) is now a DIG. This disparity speaks volumes and clarifies the seniority dynamics between Disu and Mba.

The reality remains that every rank beyond Commissioner of Police bears the imprint of politics! Both are fine officers. One can only hope the new sheriff will revolutionise the system, just as he did as the commander of the Lagos State Rapid Respond Squad (RRS) between June 13, 2015, to August 2021.
