The
Lagos Police Command was thrown into confusion on Wednesday as two
Commissioners of Police emerged in the command.
Earlier
in the day, it was gathered that Edgar Imohimi, a Deputy Commissioner of
Police, had been appointed as the new Commissioner of Police to replace Fatai
Owoseni, who had been in the position for two years.
It
was gathered that Owoseni would assume the post of Commissioner of Police in
Charge of Administration at the Force Headquarters in Abuja.
But
Owoseni, later in the day, said he was not aware of the appointment of a new
police commissioner for the state.
Owoseni
told the News Agency of Nigeria that he had yet to receive
any directive on any posting or the fact that there was a new commissioner in
the state.
“When
we get the information, we will let you know,” Owoseni said.
NAN also reported that Owoseni, on
Wednesday, spoke at a conference on security at the Lagos University Teaching
Hospital, Idi Araba, in his capacity as Lagos State police commissioner.
Neither
the Force Public Relations Officer, Moshood Jimoh, nor the state command
spokeman, Olarinde Famous-Cole, picked their calls.
