President Muhammadu Buhari has condoled the family of the late Inspector General of Police, Sir Etim Okon Inyang, who passed away yesterday at 85.
The President, in his  condolence message, said the former Inspector General contributed immensely to the reforms and structuring of the nation’s security, and the processes that heralded good governance and democracy.
Buhari’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, in a statement, said the President noted that Inyang served meritoriously as the head of the nation’s police force for three years, 1983-1986.
“As a member of the National Security Council and Vice Chairman of the Constitution Review Committee in 1987, the President believes the former Inspector General contributed immensely to the reforms and structuring of the nation’s security, and the processes that heralded good governance and democracy”.
President Buhari prayed that the almighty God will grant the departed soul eternal rest, and comfort his family.
