Egbetokun created many enemies for Tinubu – Deji Adeyanju

Activist lawyer, Deji Adeyanju says the immediate past Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun created enemies for President Bola Tinubu while in service.

Deji, who was addressing the press on the removal of Egbetokun, claimed that karma has come for the former IGP.

He warned public office holders to remain circumspect while dealing with the Nigerian citizens, stating that power is transient.

He said, “Egbetokun inherited so many enemies for his principal, President Bola Tinubu. As a public office holder, you should know that you will never be in power forever.

“Karma has come for Malami, El-Rufai and Egbetokun. Karma is going to come for many of them that will soon be out of government.

“We must always circumspect when dealing with citizens. Many of them like Egbetokun used their offices to victimize people”.

DAILY POST reports that President Tinubu on Wednesday decorated Tunji Disu with the rank of acting Inspector-General of Police, replacing Egbetokun.

Prior to his removal, Egbetokun faced stiff resistance from several Nigerians, especially activists, who accused him of illegally occupying the office.
