A newly-promoted Assistant Inspector-General of Police (AIG), in charge Police Armament, Force Headquarters Abuja, Omololu Bishi, has died at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, (LASUTH) Ikeja.

According to Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the Lagos police spokesperson, the late AIG was buried on Tuesday with a burial parade held in his honour by the Nigerian Police Force.

“AIG Omololu Bishi’s body was today, Tuesday 12th January, 2021, laid to rest at Ebony Vaults, Ikoyi, Lagos amidst tears and police funfair as the AIG Zone 2, AIG Ahmed Iliyasu led senior officers in Lagos to represent the Inspector-General of Police and organised a befitting burial parade in honour of the late senior officer.
