Odumosu, a former Lagos State Commissioner of Police shortly before his retirement, takes over from Abdulrasheed Bawa, who was relieved of his duties as the EFCC chairman recently and subsequently arrested by the Department of State Service(DSS).
TNG reports the appointment of Odumosu is, however, subject to confirmation by the Senate.
Odumosu retired from the Police Force in January 2022, following his attainment of the rank of AIG, after which the statutory retirement age set in.
He was enlisted in the police on March 3, 1990, and served for 32 years.
