A reshuffle may be going on in the Imo State Police Command as the Inspector General of Police,Ibrahim Idris, has removed theImo State Commissioner of Police, Dasuki Galadanchi  and some other key officers.
The Police Boss also removed the three Deputy Commissioners of Police in the Command who were in charge of the Operations and State Criminal and Investigation Departments of the Command.
The IGP also removed 11 out of the 14 Assistant Commissioners of Police in the Command.
The affected ACPs included Area commanders and others heading strategic departments in the Command headquarters.
A Police source who confirmed the development on Wednesday described it as “a tsunami.”
He said that the Command had never witnessed such massive transfers.
The source who pleaded anonymity said, “The IGP has removed the Commissioner of Police, all the three Deputy Commissioners of Police and 11 out of the 14 Assistant Commissioners of Police.
“The transfers are with immediate actions. The Command is expecting a new CP any moment from now.”
Punch reports that the IGP transferred the Imo CP to Bauchi State Command.

Theresa May to Resign as UK PM June 7: “I have done everything I can”

Britain’s Prime Minister  Theresa May  has said she’ll step down from her position and as U.K. Conservative Party leader on June 7. She said this on Friday at a press conference in front of 10 Downing Street. May said she’s resigning after she’s tried, three times, to make Brexit a reality. “Ever since I first stepped through the door behind me as prime minister I have striven to make the United Kingdom a country that works not just for the privileged few but for everyone, and to honor the result of the referendum,” May said. She added: “I have done everything I can to convince MPs to back this deal. Sadly, I have not been able — I tried three times.” “I believe it was right to persevere….it is now clear to me that it is in the best interest of the country for a new PM to lead that effort,” May said. May held back tears throughout the speech and was visibly tearful as she concluded her speech.
