In a letter dated January 24, 2023, and signed by Hafiz Inuwa, assistant inspector general of police to the Police Service Commission (PSC), the commissioners have been posted to Lagos and Ogun states respectively.
While Mba would be replacing Abiodun Alabi in Lagos, Owohunwa would take over from Lanre Bankole in Ogun.
