Kayode Egbetokun, the acting Inspector-General of Police appointed by President Bola Tinubu on Monday, is set to retire from the Nigeria Police Force on September 4, 2024.

This is in accordance with the civil service regulation, which demands retirement at the age of 60 or after 35 years of service, whichever comes first.

If Egbetokun is approved as the Inspector-General of Police, Tinubu’s nomination will be comparable to that of former President Muhammadu Buhari, who appointed a police official slated to retire during his tenure.
