President Muhammadu Buhari is currently presiding over the Police Council meeting in the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Those in attendance at the meeting include Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo; Chairman of the Governors’ Forum Kayode Fayemi and the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha.
Others physically attending the meeting are Chief of Staff to the President, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari; Ministers of Police Affairs, Alhaji Maigari Dingyadi; Interior, Ra’uf Aregbesola; Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Muhammed Bello and Chairman Police Service Commission(PSC), Musiliu Smith.
The acting Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba was also sighted at the venue of the meeting but he was not part of the deliberations.
There are expectations the Council might confirm appointment of the acting IGP.
Buhari on April 6 appointed Usman Baba as acting the Inspector General of Police.
The meeting, which was earlier scheduled for Thursday 27th May, 2021, was postponed in honour of memory of the late Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Ibrahim Attahiru and 10 other Senior Military Officers and Service Men, who died in a plane crash.
