The Lagos State Commissioner of Police Fatai Owoseni yesterday said he was not aware of the appointment of a new police commissioner for the state.
Owoseni told reporters at the Lagos State Police Command in Ikeja that he was yet to receive any directive on a new police commissioner in the state.
There were speculations late Tuesday night that the Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) in charge of Operations, Imohimi Edgar, had been named the acting Police Commissioner.
Owoseni, was said to have been moved to the Force Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (FCIID) in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
But the police chief said the development was news to him.
“When we get the information, we will let you know,” Owoseni told reporters in reaction to reports of his removal which was published by some online media organisations.
Owoseni spoke in his capacity as Lagos Police Commissioner at a conference on security challenges in health institutions at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH), Idi-Araba, Lagos mainland.
