A civic advocacy group, Prayer and Support for the Nigerian Armed Forces and Other Security Agencies, has expressed confidence in Inspector-General of Police Olatunji Disu and called for broader public backing of ongoing reforms within the Nigeria Police Force.
In a statement made available to The Media on Saturday, the group’s leader, Ambassador Mary Abayomi Fatile, made the remarks during a courtesy visit to the Force Headquarters in Abuja, where members held discussions with police leadership.
Fatile said the group believes in the capacity and track record of the Inspector-General to drive meaningful reforms that will strengthen public trust and improve policing standards nationwide.
“We are here not only to show support, but to underscore our confidence in the current Police leadership. Nigerians are hopeful, and we share that optimism for a more responsive and people-focused police institution,” she said.
Fatile said Disu’s professional background demonstrates strong leadership credentials, pointing to his impactful tenure as Commander of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) in Lagos, where he was credited with enhancing operational efficiency and improving rapid response to crime.
