The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Egbetokun, has approved the posting of DIG Mohammed Adamu Dankwara as the new Deputy Inspector-General of Police in charge of the Department of Finance and Administration.
A press statement by the Force Public Relations Officer (FPRO), CSP Benjamin Hundeyin, Friday in Abuja, said DIG Dankwara replaces DIG Sahabo Abubakar Yahaya who recently retired from the Force after over three decades of distinguished and meritorious service.



The FPRO noted that prior to his elevation, DIG Dankwara served as the Assistant Inspector-General of Police in charge of the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID), Abuja, where he demonstrated exceptional leadership, professionalism, and dedication to duty.



He said IGP Egbetokun, while congratulating the senior officer on his new appointment, expressed confidence in his capacity to bring his wealth of experience to bear in strengthening the administrative functions of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF).



Hundeyin said the posting was in line with the IGP’s commitment to repositioning the Force for greater efficiency and effectiveness in the discharge of its statutory responsibilities.
"The NPF remains resolute in its mission to ensure the safety and security of all citizens through strategic leadership placements and performance excellence," he assured.
