Tuesday, Adamu was at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport to receive President Buhari who returned to Abuja after a four-day trip to his hometown Daura.

A top source said: “The IGP has been asked by the President to handover.

“Adamu was waiting for the presidential directive. He would have left on Monday but it will be discourteous to have exited without a clear-cut directive from the President and Commander-In-Chief.

“He may likely handover to the most senior deputy inspector-general of Police. I am aware Adamu was yesterday putting finishing touches to his handover note.”

There were speculations on Tuesday that AIG Zanna Ibrahim might be appointed IGP.

It was learnt that there was jubilation at the Nigerian Police Academy, Wudil, Kano State, Tuesday by some officials of the college.

“We have not seen him but his personal assistant came to his office this evening to clear a few things from his desk, “a lecturer said.

Attempts to speak with Zanna on Tuesday were unsuccessful.

The Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the President, Mr. Femi Adesina, simply said: “I don’t have any information yet on that (new IGP),” when contacted
