Super Cop, Tunji Disu as the Pride of Police Force
It is an undisputed fact that one of the greatest appointments so far carried out by the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun is appointing Tunji Disu as the Commissioner of Police in charge of River State Police Command.
Many who have followed the story of the super cop would definitely agree that Rivers could not have asked for a better Police Commissioner.
Indeed, since he took over the reins of policing the state in June 2023, he has taken his duties with the seriousness, officious dedication and total commitment that it deserves. He has been a thorn in the flesh of the undisciplined elements in the state, while also ensuring peace and security of lives in the state.
Without any shadow of a doubt, it is evident that he shares in the vision of the IGP and the state governor – to stamp out crimes from the state. In no time, he has dealt a sucker punch to the criminals in the state while he has recorded unprecedented success as the crime in the state reduced to the barest minimum.
He has showcased his bravery, gallantry and heroism, thereby warming himself into the hearts of many. With these successes, he has become one of the most popular cops in the country, while also rebuilding the confidence of the citizens in the police force by projecting the image of the force that has been battered in the past.
The super cop is not only about fighting crime, he has also shown that he is compassionate about the plight of his fellow citizens.
On February 14, the CP commemorated this year’s St Valentine Day’s celebration when he hosted 200 widows of late police officers to a love feast, reassuring them that they are not forgotten and that they are cherished. The widows were feted as well as stocked with food palliatives and money.
He also expressed the readiness of the state police command to always honour the wives of the late police officers at all times, considering the roles their late husbands played in the fight for a better Rivers while alive.
That his valour has fetched him encomiums from far and wide is stating the obvious. If torrents of accolades that were poured on him recently could be used to gauge the level of his rising profile, then, one could say that he is a super cop.
