Six Days To Imo State Election, IGP Bows To Pressure, Removes Imo CP Mohammed Barde
The Inspector-General of Police, IGP, Kayode Egbetokun has redeployed the Imo State Commissioner of Police, CP Mohammed Barde to the Force Headquarters, relieving him of his duties in the state.
His removal as CP of the state followed allegations of partisanship among others, levelled against him by the nation’s organised Labour after its president, Joe Ajaero was attacked in Imo State.
The IGP said his removal signified the Police Force neutrality in the situation and its dedication to upholding the rule of law and maintaining strict neutrality throughout the electoral proceedings.
The police in a statement, signed by its spokesperson, Muyiwa Adejobi, on Sunday read in part: “In a pivotal development ahead of the upcoming gubernatorial election in Imo state on 11th November, 2023, the Inspector General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, has ordered the redeployment of the Commissioner of Police in the state, CP Mohammed Barde to the Force Headquarters on special duty.
“This redeployment is not an indictment on the affected officer but is rather part of a broader strategy aimed at bolstering security measures, promoting transparency, and upholding the integrity of the electoral security management.
