Rejoice

The Emir of Ilorin, Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu Gambari, has described the appointment of DIG Kayode Egbetokun as the acting Inspector-General of Police as a reward for diligence, hardwork and patriotism.

Gambari, who is also the Chairman of Kwara Traditional Rulers Council, conveyed his felicitation in a congratulatory message issued by his Spokesman, Malam Abdulazeez Arowona, on Tuesday in Ilorin.

He described Egbetokun as a detribalised Nigerian.

The first class traditional ruler noted that Egbetokun is committed to the security and protection of lives and property of the nation.

The emir recalled when Egbetokun was the Commissioner of Police in Kwara between January 2019 and December 2020, was monumental due to his unwavering efforts towards combating crime and criminality across the state.

“On behalf of the entire members of the Kwara Traditional Rulers Council, we heartily rejoice with you on your attainment on the enviable position of acting IG-P.

 

“I give glory to Almighty Allah that my prayers for you to become Nigeria’s IG-P in my lifetime has become a reality.

 

“We identify with you and pray that Almighty Allah grant you the strength and absolute guidance to justify the confidence reposed in you,” the statement read in part.
