"It's a double celebration for IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, who not only marks his 60th birthday today but also celebrates his tenure extension as Nigeria's top police officer," Dr. Ogunsan remarked.

Dr. Ogunsan further highlighted IGP Egbetokun's dedication to gender inclusion within the Nigeria Police Force, noting his commitment to appointing women to strategic and sensitive positions. He specifically mentioned the appointment of AIG Yetunde Longe, the first-ever female Force Secretary, and her successor, AIG Rhoda Olofu, both of whom were chosen under Egbetokun's leadership.

"IGP Egbetokun is a man of destiny, whose life has been dedicated to public service. His tenure has been marked by competence, determination, and a strong sense of purpose," Dr. Ogunsan added. "I join his family, friends, and the entire Nigeria Police Force in celebrating this milestone and wish him continued success in his life and career. I send him my double salute."

The congratulatory message emphasized IGP Egbetokun's commitment to maintaining high standards within the police force and recognized his achievements as a leader who continues to shape the future of policing in Nigeria.
