Share President Muhammadu Buhari has said the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria gives him the power to extend the tenure of Mohammed Adamu as Inspector General of Police (IGP). It would be recalled that an Abuja-based lawyer, Maxwell Okpara had approached a Federal High Court in Abuja with a suit seeking to stop Adamu from parading himself as the IGP. Okpara joined the president, IGP Adamu, Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami (SAN) and the Nigeria Police Council as defendants in the suit. But, President Buhari and Malami, in a counter-affidavit filed on March 15, 2021, said, in the exercise of the executive power conferred on the president by the constitution, he can appoint a serving police officer as the IGP in consultation with the Police Council.
