Ahead of the battle-royale February 14 presidential election, the Inspector-General of Police, Suleiman Abba, has redeployed 14 Assistant Inspectors-General of Police to various departments, zonal commands and formations of the force.
One of them is the controversial AIG in charge of Zone 7, Abuja, who has been moved to Lagos in what some credible sources confirmed was informed by the general elections.
Mbu, a former Rivers State Commissioner of Police, had a running battle with Governor Rotimi Amaechi. Shortly after he was transferred to Abuja as CP in September last year, he described himself as a lion who tamed "the leopard of Port Harcourt” in apparent reference to Governor Amaechi.
