The Police Service Commission (PSC) has removed Mrs Betty Enekpen Isokpan Otimenyin as the Commissioner of Police in charge of Edo State Command.

Urban Express News Online gathered that she was removed as Commissioner of Police in the state due to the killing of 16 Hausa-Fulani travelers in Uromi, Esan North-East Local Government Area of Edo State, on March 27, 2025.

The PSC appointed Monday Agbonika as her replacement.

Betty Otimenyin was appointed as the 49th CP of the State on January 16, 2025.

She took over for CP Peter Umoru Ozigi at his retirement on January 25, 2025.

A statement by the Commission’s Head of Press and Public Relations, Ikechukwu Ani, said the new Commissioner of Police, Monday Agbonika was, until his deployment to Edo State, the Commissioner of Police (Mounted Troop), Force Equitation Officer, Force Headquarters, Abuja

Ani said the new CP, who was at the Police Service Commission for a posting interview presided over by the Chairman, DIG Hashimu Argungu (rtd), was charged to be proactive and to settle down quickly so as to reduce the crime rate in Edo State.

The new CP was also advised to look into the issues surrounding the recent killings in the state.

“You have to sit up and also work to win the confidence of the people, consult relevant stakeholders and always document every incident and action taken and make sure those who should be informed are properly informed of your actions,” the statement added.

Ani added that the new CP assured him that he would stand by relevant laws in the discharge of his duties.

He promised that he would always depend on the Inspector General of Police for necessary guidance.

Agbonika is a seasoned police officer of 32 years’ experience, which covered operations, investigation, administration, police public information and area/divisional Police management.

The new Commissioner was earlier Commissioner of Police Communications (Operations), Deputy Commissioner Interpol, Force Criminal Investigation Department Annex, Alagbon Close, Lagos; DCP Ops, Ports Authority Police Command, Port Harcourt.

He also served as DCP Department of Finance and Admin, Zone 16 Yenagoa; Area Commander Ota, Ogun State; Area Commander ‘M’ Idimu, Lagos, and pioneer Area Commander, Ayetoro, Ogun State amongst other postings.
