Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP) Benjamin Hundeyin has been appointed as the new Force Public Relations Officer (FPRO) of the Nigeria Police Force. He takes over from Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Muyiwa Adejobi, who has been redeployed to the Delta State Police Command.
Hundeyin has served as the Public Relations Officer of the Lagos State Police Command since March 2022. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in English Language from Lagos State University and a Master’s degree in Legal Criminology and Security Psychology from the University of Ibadan.
A seasoned communication professional, Hundeyin is a member of the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations, the International Public Relations Association, and the Chartered Institute of Personnel Management of Nigeria. He has also received specialized training in civil-military coordination and served in the United Nations-African Union Mission in Darfur.
The police authorities said Adejobi’s redeployment was part of routine administrative adjustments aimed at career progression and manpower optimization, stressing that it was neither punitive nor controversial.
The transition will take effect after an official handover ceremony at the Force Headquarters in Abuja, where Hundeyin will formally assume duties as the national spokesperson of the police.
