Hundeyin was appointed to the position six months ago by the former Inspector General of Police, Dr.
Kayode Egbetokun.
After he assumed the role, he was promoted to the rank of Assistant Commissioner of Police, ACP.
It was gathered on Thursday, the former FPRO’s redeployment is part of an ongoing restructuring within the Nigeria Police Force embarked upon by IGP Disu.
Hundeyin, who previously served under former IGP Kayode Egbetokun, was known for his strong communication background and experience, including international service with the UN–AU Mission in Darfur.
He was the former Lagos State Public Relations Officer, where he performed brilliantly well before he was promoted to the Force Headquarters.
A replacement for the FPRO position is expected to be announced soon.
It was gathered from the Force Headquarters that IGP Disu already has his preferred candidate for the Police image-making Office.
