 Mexico agrees to host Iran’s World Cup team after U.S. declines to accommodate squad, Sheinbaum says    Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said Monday that Mexico has agreed to host the Iranian national football team during the upcoming World Cup after the United States declined to accommodate the squad. Sheinbaum said the decision followed a request from FIFA, which sought an alternative arrangement after U.S. officials indicated they did not want Iran’s team staying in the country for the duration of the tournament, even though Iran is scheduled to play all of its group-stage matches on U.S. soil. “We have no reason to deny them the possibility of staying in Mexico,” Sheinbaum said during her daily press conference, adding that Mexico accepted the request in coordination with tournament organizers.

 IGP DISU CONVENES EMERGENCY CONFERENCE WITH SENIOR POLICE LEADERSHIP, ANNOUNCES KEY REFORMS 


The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Olatunji Rilwan Disu, psc(+), NPM, on Tuesday, 5th May 2026, convened an emergency conference with senior strategic managers of the Nigeria Police Force, including the Force Management Team, Assistant Inspectors-General of Police and Commissioners of Police, at the Force Headquarters, Abuja.


The conference, which also had members of the press in attendance, was convened to address critical national security concerns, reinforce accountability within the Force, and outline strategic operational directives for Commands and Formations nationwide.


In his address, the Inspector-General of Police emphasized the imperative of transparency, discipline, and leadership responsibility at all levels of command, noting that the evolving security landscape demands a more responsive, accountable, and intelligence-driven policing approach.


The IGP directly addressed the recent incident in Delta State involving the extra-judicial killing of a suspect, describing the act as unlawful and inconsistent with the values of the Nigeria Police Force. He confirmed that the officers involved have been dismissed from service, while the case has been forwarded for criminal prosecution. He reiterated the Force’s zero-tolerance stance on misconduct, stressing that no officer is above the law.


Highlighting operational outcomes for April 2026, the Inspector-General of Police disclosed that intelligence-led operations across the country led to the arrest of 28 suspected terrorists, 51 murder suspects, 62 armed robbery suspects, 85 kidnapping suspects, and 54 suspected cultists. Additionally, 189 kidnapped victims were rescued, 140 firearms and 1,074 rounds of ammunition recovered, alongside 37 stolen vehicles.


As part of a major structural reform, the IGP announced the establishment of the Violent Crime Response Unit (VCRU), a restructured tactical formation designed to enhance the Force’s response to serious and violent crimes. He noted that the Unit will operate strictly on intelligence-based deployment, supported by specialized training, human rights compliance, and structured accountability, with Commissioners of Police bearing direct responsibility for its oversight.


The Inspector-General further directed all Commissioners of Police to strengthen community policing through regular town hall engagements with key stakeholders, including traditional rulers, religious leaders, and community groups. He also mandated that Commissioners make their contact details accessible to community leaders to improve communication and public trust.


IGP Olatunji Disu reiterated that the ongoing reforms within the Nigeria Police Force are focused on professionalism, discipline, human rights compliance, and public accountability, supported by accessible mechanisms such as the Police Complaints Response Unit (CRU).


The Nigeria Police Force remains committed to institutional reform, operational efficiency, and the protection of the rights and safety of all Nigerians.
