Inspector-General of Police, Olatunji Disu, has returned to the Ago-Iwoye Police Division in Ogun State, where he began his career as a Divisional Police Officer several decades ago.

Disu visited the station on Saturday as part of an emotional return to the place where he first took on leadership responsibilities within the Nigeria Police Force.

During the visit, the police chief toured the division, inspected his former office and residence, and revisited places connected to his early years in the service.

The Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Ani Iniedu, shared images and a video of the visit on Saturday, describing it as a reflection on Disu’s journey from a young officer at Ago-Iwoye to his current position as Inspector-General of Police.

Speaking during the visit, Disu said returning to the station brought back memories of the period when he first tested his leadership abilities as a DPO.

He recalled being posted to Ago-Iwoye without previous experience as a divisional police officer and described the opportunity as an important stage in his professional development.

According to him, seeing his former office and room again was deeply emotional, as the station represented the beginning of his leadership journey in the police.

Disu also spoke about people and places he remembered from his early days in the community, including an elderly woman who sold goods near the police station and a man known as Baba Aladji.

The IGP used the occasion to encourage police officers and other workers to take pride in their responsibilities, stressing the importance of leaving behind a positive record wherever they serve.

He posed a question that captured the message behind his return: “Can you go back to where you worked before?”
