‘Karma Has Come For Egbetokun’ – Deji Adeyanju

Nigerian lawyer cum human rights activist, Deji Adeyanju, has stated that the removal of the immediate past Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, is karma for him.

Naija News reports that Adeyanju made this known while addressing the press on the removal of Egbetokun.

Adeyanju stated that the former IGP inherited many enemies for his principal, President Bola Tinubu, while in service.

While recalling the ordeal of former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, and ex-Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami (SAN), Adeyanju warned public office holders to remain circumspect in dealing with Nigerian citizens, stating that power is transient.

He said, “Egbetokun inherited so many enemies for his principal, President Bola Tinubu. As a public office holder, you should know that you will never be in power forever.

“Karma has come for Malami, El-Rufai and Egbetokun. Karma is going to come for many of them that will soon be out of government.

“We must always circumspect when dealing with citizens. Many of them like Egbetokun used their offices to victimize people”.

Recall that President Tinubu on Wednesday decorated Tunji Disu, replacing Egbetokun as the acting Inspector-General of Police.

Before his removal, Egbetokun faced stiff resistance from several Nigerians, especially activists, who accused him of illegally occupying the office.
