Speaking in a video posted on Symfoni, Sowore noted that despite widespread reports, there is no official confirmation on how long Disu will serve in the role.
Disu was recently sworn in as Nigeria’s 23rd Inspector‑General of Police following the resignation of his predecessor, Kayode Egbetokun. Disu’s appointment was endorsed by the Nigeria Police Council and formally ratified with a swearing-in ceremony at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
According to Sowore, “Did he tell you that he's going to serve a four-year tenure? I've not seen anything that says the man will serve a four-year tenure.
Maybe they're careful not to offend us. They said he was acting IGP, and they met with the police council, and they said he was sworn in. I've not seen any record anywhere that says he'll spend four years.”
He reiterated his observation, highlighting that while Disu has been officially sworn in as IGP, public and media assumptions about a four‑year tenure may not align with the official record or regulations.
Sowore’s comments underscore a broader interest in leadership transitions within Nigeria’s security institutions and how such appointments are communicated to the public.
