The Inspector-General of Police, Olatunji Disu, has disbursed N2.4 billion to families of police officers who died in active service, as part of efforts to support their welfare and honour their sacrifices.

Disu disclosed this on Wednesday during a cheque presentation ceremony held in Abuja, noting that the payments were made under the Group Life Assurance and the I-G Family Welfare Schemes.

The I-G said the N2.4 billion covers 1,075 beneficiaries, including next of kin of deceased officers, spanning multiple policy years—2018/2019, 2020/2021, 2021/2022, 2022/2023, 2024/2025, and 2025/2026. He added that part of the disbursement also includes recoveries from insurance obligations that had remained unpaid for years.

This is a good move. Supporting the families of fallen officers shows responsibility and helps build trust in the system. Hopefully, payments like this remain consistent and timely going forward.

What you are seeing here is the release of long-delayed financial obligations.

These payments span several years, which tells you that the issue was never about absence of funds alone, but about structure, prioritisation, and enforcement.
