The Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, has deployed Fayoade Adegoke to take over as the new Commissioner of Police of Lagos state.

The redeployment is contained in a signal signed by the Force Secretary, AIG Olanrewaju Oladimeji.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that before his new posting, Adegoke was in charge of Armament at the Force Headquarters, Abuja.

While serving in that capacity, he attended a course at the Nigerian Institute of Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS), Kuru-Jos, Plateau, where he graduated among 96 distinguished Nigerians as Executive Course 45.

Adegoke takes over from outgoing police henchman of Lagos, Idowu Owohunwa, who had been promoted to the rank of Assistant Inspector-General of Police, in-charge of the Federal Criminal Investigation Department, Alagbon Ikoyi, Lagos.
