Musiliu Smith

Predecessor of Tafa Balogun as Inspector-General of Police; handed over the IGP role to Balogun in March 2002. Position-context node only — no specific allegation against Smith is recorded in cited sources. Included to render the succession into the Balogun corruption-conviction cluster legible.
