According to report, the new IGP paid a courtesy call on the chairman Police Service Commission, Alhaji Musiliu Smith, a retired IGP with the DIGs.
When Mohammed stepped out, both police officers, rank and file as well as well wishers formed a crowd hustling to greet him.
He had to move DIG R&P office where he received both officers and civilians visitors till 6pm.

From 6.18pm till 6.32pm when he came to ground floor to go to the front of the building where his staff car and escort cars were packed, the crowd barricaded his car, blocking him from entering, cheering and using their phones to take his photograph while some used their phones to video him and the crowd. All along he was waving and smiling.
