LunagisthubControversy Surrounds Promotion of IGP’s Associate
A recent development within the Nigeria Police Force has sparked widespread controversy and outrage. Bukola Kuti, a female officer romantically linked to Inspector General of Police Kayode Egbetokun, has been fast-tracked to the rank of Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) just 10 years into her service. This rapid promotion has raised eyebrows among colleagues and insiders, who view it as preferential treatment.
Kuti’s rise through the ranks has been unusually swift, with many questioning the criteria used for her promotion. According to sources, she spent only six months as a Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP) before being promoted to ACP, a trajectory seen by many as a product of her close ties to the IGP rather than merit or seniority.
The promotion has sparked ethnic and institutional tensions within the force, with many officers expressing discontent and frustration. The development has also raised concerns about the integrity and fairness of the promotion process within the Nigeria Police Force.
The controversy surrounding Kuti’s promotion has highlighted the need for transparency and accountability in the promotion process within the Nigeria Police Force. As the situation continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how this development will impact the force’s morale and effectiveness.
