John Mrabure who until his appointment was in charge of the Human Resource Directorate of the NCoS, became a DCG in July 2019 when President Muhammadu Buhari approved the promotion of 10 senior officials of the paramilitary agencies under the Ministry of Interior.
DCG Mrabure takes over from Comptroller-General Ja’afaru Ahmed, after the expiration of his twice extended tenure.
He hails from Delta State, South-south, Nigeria.
President Muhammadu Buhari had extended the tenure of Jaafaru for one year from July 21, 2019, to July 21, 2020, before the Minister of Interior, Mr. Rauf Aregbesola gave him another 6 months extension which expired on January 21, 2021.
