IG Set To Re-marry.

The Inspector General of Police (IGP),
Mr Mohammed Abubakar, is set to re-
marry, one year after the death of his
wife, Maryram, the News Agency of
Nigeria (NAN) reports.
CSP Frank Mba, the spokesman for
the force, who confirmed the story,
told NAN in Abuja on Wednesday that
the wedding has been tentatively
fixed for Sept. 14.
Mba, however, said the confirmation
was not an invitation to the public as
the intended wedding was the private
affair of the IGP.
``I want to appeal to the media to
respect the privacy of the intending
couple.
``We must all remember that that
there is a line between Mohammed
Abubkar as a private citizen of
Nigeria and the office of the Inspector
General of Police.
``As much as possible, we urge the
media to respect the privacy of his
life and strike a very good balance
between his quest for legitimate
public interest and information’’,
Mba said.
It will be recalled that Maryam died
in January 2012 shortly after
Abubakar assumed office in acting
capacity.
