President Muhammadu Buhari is presiding over the Police Council meeting in the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, Chairman of the Governors’ Forum Kayode Fayemi and the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha, are attending the meeting.
Others physically attending the meeting are Chief of Staff to the President, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari; Ministers of Police Affairs, Alhaji Maigari Dingyadi; Interior, Ra’uf Aregbesola; Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Muhammed Bello and Chairman Police Service Commission (PSC), Musiliu Smith.
The acting Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba, was also sighted at the venue of the meeting but he was not part of the deliberations.
There are expectations the council might confirm appointment of the acting IGP, appointed by Buhari on April 6.
