TUNJI Disu has been decorated as the Acting Inspector-General of Police.
He was decorated at a ceremony by President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday at the State House, Abuja, 24 hours after he was appointed as the Acting Inspector-General of Police.

Before then, he served as Commissioner of Police in Rivers State and was later deployed by Egbetokun to Abuja as Commissioner of Police of the Federal Capital Territory.
