| IGP with Adetayo Akerele. |
The Chairman of the Lagos State Task Force, CSP Adetayo Akerele has been summoned to appear before a special panel set up by the Inspector General of Police (IGP) Tunji Disu to investigate allegations of impunity and corruption leveled against officers of the agency.
Akerele, according to informed sources, is to appear
before the panel on Monday (tomorrow) at the Force Headquarters in Abuja.
The move comes amid growing allegations of
high-handedness and alleged impunity involving Akerele and officers under his
command.
The directive by the IGP signals a swift response to
public concerns, which have intensified following multiple reports of
misconduct linked to the officers.
Meanwhile, the exact nature of the discussions
expected at the Force Headquarters has not been disclosed, leaving room for
speculation.
“CSP Adetayo Akerele has been called to Abuja on
Monday,” sources confirmed.
“This is in light of alleged misconduct and concerns
about impunity under his command.”
According to sources, the summoning is part of ongoing
efforts by the new IGP to reinforce discipline and accountability within the
Nigeria Police Force.
"IGP Disu believes in the importance of a fair
hearing. The allegations against CSP Akerele and his team are serious and must
be thoroughly investigated.
"This is precisely what the IGP has undertaken.
If proven, the public can rest assured that appropriate punishment will be
administered in accordance with the relevant provisions of the rules of
engagement," the source stated.
