Personally, I have decided not to view the videos (genuine & edited) of IGP's speech which his detractors have been using against him but few minutes ago, I received a musical video from a friend in the US on this same issue. The IGP is fighting a spiritual & political fight. In 2016 when the President's health first failed seriously, I posted on nairaland about the CCT issue threatening Saraki's Senate presidency and the Ilorin Alfas. Last year also, I said the same thing just before he left for the long medical break. During his sickness period, the RCCG Holy Ghost Theme was "Abba Father".

While naturally, the IGP is under pressure considering his position & may not have time to proof read a speech written by a senior officer who is grossly incompetent, there is an element of a spiritual attack which MFM church called ' Spirit of error' at work. I visited some offices on the island, it is the IGP's transmission's blunder that was constantly used as jokes, while in other offices, nothing like that. I observed those offices where transmission has become the new joke have affiliations to those that benefitted immensely from GEJ government, while the offices where there was no such joke or even discussion at all are companies whose owners are from the same geographical axis with IGP or with political support for PMB.

Under this scenario, PMB will not remove IGP, because the feud between IGP & the Senate has made the 2018 budget to be passed & accelerated passage of two other bills after Omo-Agege & Diino saga.

The IGP should be very vigilant to avoid another error.

The nation’s Inspector General of Police, Idris Ibrahim seems to have risen above the law of the land and control of the president who appointed him. This is as extremely worrisome as it is setting a terrible precedence in the country.

What is particularly curious about the recent actions of the Inspector General of Police is the temerity with which he had repeatedly called the bluff of the Senate institution and disobeyed orders given to him by President Muhammadu Buhari.

It must be agreed that the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris would not have ordinarily behaved this way if not for some hidden reasons that are perhaps not known to the public. But one thing that is incontrovertible is the fact that the police boss has been compensated with the position of Inspector General.

It can also be concluded that the same hidden reason that is responsible for the now seeming “above the law” disposition of the Police IG must have also informed his appointment in the first instance.

Meanwhile, record has it that Ibrahim Idris was in 2015 the Police Commissioner in charge of Kano state when he superintended the delivery of millions of votes to the APC.

He was still the same police boss in-charge of Kano state when the INEC Commissioner for the state was burnt to death with his wife and two children in a rather unexplainable circumstance. It will be recalled that President Buhari garnered nearly two million votes in the most populous northern state during the 2015 presidential election.

Meanwhile, curious but disturbing questions need to be asked on the circumstances surrounding the appointment of Ibrahim Idris as the IGP in the first instance.

What could have led to the to compulsorily retirement of 21 AIGs and 7 DIGs just for Ibrahim Idris to become the IGP ? What other factor could have been responsible for the unprecedented promotions given to Ibrahim Idris from the rank of Commissioner of Police in 2015 to Assistant Inspector General, to Deputy Inspector General and Inspector General of Police all from year 2015 to 2016?

We also need to know what could have made the IGP disobeyed the instruction of the president without any consequence till date ?

Another probing question is what was the good quality seen in Ibrahim Idris by President Buhari at the time of his appointment that was not found in any of his compulsorily retired 28 seniors? We need not be told that Idris had been merely compensated for his hatchet job in the 2015 presidential election held in Kano and the subsequent cover-up in the investigation of circumstances leading to and surrounding the death of the INEC Commissioner.

It is most regrettable that Ibrahim Idris has now constituted himself into an authority that cannot be questioned; as a result has become so emboldened to have conveniently disobeyed several Senate invitations. It is particularly very sad that the man even feels at ease in the face of mindless bloodletting across the country.

However, no sinner can hide behind one finger for too long. The dirty past of the IGP has been exposed and the earlier he is relieved of his position, the faster solutions could be found to the reign of impunity and ceaseless killings across the land. Time is now for President Buhari to remove the IGP from office and safe the nation from further gruesome killings and maiming.

I hope Nigerians especially our youths could support PMB in the corruption fight and secure him the seat in the 2019 election. PMB second time would be solely for imprisonment of the massive looters and many of his mighty and hidden projects will be manifested, this man of integrity is on a mission to fight and reduce corruption to the minimal and this has been a huge worry for our nation destroyer.

All this concocted and sponsored story of IGP being incompetent is just a distraction and empty noise from the so called heavy looters who only want him removed.

The story is not far fetched. The IGP single handedly garnered and contributed additional 1 million fictitious votes in Kano when he was the CP then.
The killing of the INEC REC in and family in Kano had also remained an unravelled mistry. Romour has it that it was he refusal to absorbed the additional 1 million fictitious votes that resulted to the burning of his house and killing him and his family under police watch.
He was however compensated with the IG position no wonder more than 21 AIGs were forcefully retired to make room for his emergence!
His larger than life attitude and his many anomallies could be traced to these facts here above.

It's so unfortunate what Nairaland has become. You come here and all you get to read is the submission of paid agents of politicians and I mean the selfish and bad politicians, who have only succeeded in using their position to Impoverish us. These agents tactfully target the mind of the undiscerning and simple ones, trying to sway their reasoning and make them align with theirs. Their moniker changes but their position about important national issues is the same -Hate. No objectivity! Can somebody please tell me what good Saraki or Dino has done in this govt that the IG should be axed because he dared to stand up to them? Or isn't the legislature part of the govt anymore? Dear Nairaland youth, you are intelligent and not lazy. The present govt has fared badly and we deserve and must get something better come 2019, but let's be careful who we allow to control our mind online, so they don't lead us astray again.

His whereabouts when he was deployed to benue should also be examined..

If only the killer herdmens abi their other Bornu cousins could be really patriotic and target the deserving targets, we will know all that remains is to start from the beginning like we did when God himself intervened in the era of Abacha.

Until then, that guy is not going anywhere until he retires, he resigns of his own accord or the authorities completely change. Fasten your sit belt buddy...its gonna be a long ride.

President Muhammadu Buhari says he has done no wrong by giving political appointments to his “long-suffering” associates who have been with him since his days at the All Progressives Party (APP) and the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC).

https://www.thecable.ng/buhari-done-nothing-wrong-appointing-trusted-hands-app-cpc-days/amp

The man appointed those like him thereforr can a man condemn himself. Retiring him or any of his ministers or appointee will be tantamount to passing a vote of no confidence on himself. We have not yet forgotten how long it took for him to setup this best team according to him. So for this reason he cannot do anything to any of them but for us observing we can only see the type of terrible human being Bubu is. If his best selection are men of such calibre. SMH for this government.

I don't even know what Nigerian youths want, they said PMB is selective in his fight, now his party members are in trouble, their tone has now been changed to witch hunting of the challenger. Who are the challenger and what are they challenging? Are they fighting for the masses or their personal interest? what has been their achievement in the past 16years? Are they truly for the masses? These are the questions we should be asking.

The major problem we have in this country are we the citizens. Nigerians tolerate too much. Even at the point of Death, Nigerians will still tolerate. In a sane country, 90% of President Buhari’s Appointment which we all know are based on Nepotism, Tribalism and Religion can never be accepted by any citizens, anywhere in the world. Even at that, almost all appointees by APC are disastrous. We are really finished in this country. I just pray we don’t wake up one day to Fulani at our doorstep here in the South and Eastern part of Nigeria. The signs are just too obvious, we need to remove Buhari and his brainless appointees from power come 2019.

Re: Is It Time To Change The IGP? by ejimatic: 6:32am On May 19, 2018
Our problem in Nigeria is that we report and comment with sentiments-the president appoints the IG with confirmation of the Senate-other ministers can be summoned as you like not the service chiefs whose appointments are just approved by the presidency without any rigouroius exercise like other ministers.The Nigeria constitution does not make it compulsory for the IG to come to the Senate.However he can appear bfr the house if it is necessary to do so- In my humble opinion both the Senate and the IG need to change their attitude.First the Senate wants the IG to come primarily because of Dino melaye's matter-What is the business of the Senate with Dino Melaye? Is he above the law? How many times has the senate called the IG to come and explain why police are collecting #50 on the road? How many times have they called the IG to come and explain issues of stray bullets in Nigeria?is Dino the first Nigerian to be taken to court in a wheel chair or stretcher? Why the noise about his case? No wonder the IG replied the Senate and described them as people who want to pervert justice in their own interest-The Nigerian house is filled with people who are after their daily bread not the interest of the common man.The IG even replied their letter of invitation deciding to send one of the AIG s to the hoiuse-The senate did not allow him.why not listening to the AIG first and if not satisfied you reinvite the IG himself?-On the other hand, even though the constitution does not make the IG accountable to the House he should have come in the interest of democracy. This is an area for the IG to make adjustment-Strict adherence to the black and white document does not end matter at times-Finally we should know that it is only the President who can remove the IG any times any day as he wants not the Senate. This is the time for Nigerians to wake up and stop having pity for the politicians who care less for the common man on the road. .all their interest is to amass wealth for themselves everyday-

One can clearly see the problem with this tribalistic Igbos

A Bart Nnaji that was fired because he sold one of the power companies to himself.

Stella Oduah that was indicted in a N225 million car scandal scam

Are the ones this tribalistic Igbo are touting as great appointees

These diehard crooks Igbo ministers the Igbos see nothing against even though they were fired for the impunity they orchestrated but look at all of them screaming blue murder demanding sacking of the IGP because he fumbled one speech.

Well, if Igbos care to know Buhari nepotism is preferable to that of the Igbos. I can at least vouch he is not selecting thieves in those position which is unlike the Igbos appointment.

My point exactly! It's ironical you had to bring tribal sentiments to reinforce my point. They were either fired, made to retire or simply removed not just because they were found wanting but because the call for their removal was thickening (the administration listened). For balance sake let me throw in Tafa Balogun, Michael Aondoakaa (they are not Ibos abi?) and other examples. And FYI Stella Odua wasn't indicted (except there's another meaning) neither am I ibo (another daft point of argument)

Buratai, Idris and K'yiari were appointed for who they are to the Fulani empire, they were not choosen on merit. There is a grand plan, and some of the people who can carry out that grand plan were the gentlemen I mentioned. It was necessary that they head certain sensitive positions to carry out that agenda.

It is called Nepotism, and I am surprise when Nigerians cry all over social media about competence. You do not appoint someone to work with you without knowing his core competence. Buhari has an agenda to fulfill and there are certain people who can help him achieve that, and he needed positions these people can handle and he moved these gentlemen to head the institutions.

The plan must be executed, even if Buhari is out of line, they are the ones who tell the President that the intended mission can only work this way or that way, even if it means disobeying the President, in the end, the President is satisfied, because his Team, aka Cabal, are working towards an Agenda.

And he also bought the brains of the likes of yarimo, madridguy, buhariguy, sarrki so that they can call white black and call black white and behave as if they have no shame.

Have you noticed that public opinion doesn't matter anymore? I remember several ministers that were removed due to controversies that surrounded their actions even though they seemed to be doing well eg. Prof Barth Nnaji, Stella Odua even police IGs were not spared no matter how short they have stayed in office. But what so we have now? Obvious cases of incompetence, impunity and cluelessnes have become a norm and the government doesn't see any need to address issues provided it doesn't affect loyalty. It is well
state one offence of the current IGP, don't tell me because he didn't appear before the senate, that was babyish, because the core reason of his invitation was Dino melaye, no responsible IG will honor such invitation. Those past ministers you mentioned were involved in vicious corruptions. Stop being mischievous in confusing issues.
