The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Olatunji Disu, has charged Superintendents and Chief Superintendents of Police to embrace innovation, strengthen professionalism, and champion ongoing reform efforts within the Nigeria Police Force.

IGP Disu declared closed the Operational Change and Leadership (OCL) Course held at the Nigeria Police Institute, Jabi, Abuja.

Speaking at the closing ceremony of the five-day program, the IGP emphasised that effective policing in today’s complex security environment requires leaders who are adaptable, accountable, technologically driven, and capable of responding to emerging threats and evolving public expectations.

He urged participants to apply the knowledge acquired during the course to improve leadership practices, operational effectiveness, professionalism, respect for human rights, and service delivery within their Commands and Formations.

The IGP further encouraged them to serve as ambassadors of positive change by promoting intelligence-led policing, evidence-based decision-making, and technology-enabled crime prevention strategies.
