The Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba, has been sentenced to prison.

He was sentenced to three months in prison by the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, on Tuesday, for disobeying a valid court order.

The presiding judge, Mobolaji Olajuwon, issued the ruling on Tuesday following a suit filed by a former police officer, Patrick Okoli, who claimed he was unlawfully and compulsorily retired from the Nigerian police force.
