Usman Alkali-Baba, the Inspector-General of Police, has ordered the closure of all satellite units of the Intelligence Response Team and Special Tactical Squad across the country.
This comes a day after the arrest of the suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police, DCP, Abba Kyari, and others by authorities of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency over alleged drug dealings.
All serving officers in the satellite units have been directed to report to the Force Headquarters, Abuja for debriefing.
The Police source disclosed that officers in these units will be demobilized and posted to Commands across the country.
