"The purpose of visiting her is to tap from her wealth of experiences and to know about programs she has for the masses, to see how the POWA can benefit from the programs".

"I have learnt so much from her within this short period the I have spoken with her, and I am sure by the time I start working with her, my people will benefit more from the RHI programs. We will be looking at the RHI social intervention and healthcare for police families too".

"What the people should expect from me is that I am ready to work with Mama on this RHI as it affects our women since the RHI is basically for women and POWA is dominated by women".

Mrs. Mutiat Disu took over the mantle of leadership of the Police Officers' Wives Association (POWA) after the new Inspector General of Police (IGP), Tunji Disu, replaced Kayode Egbetokun on February 24, 2026.
