After taking the mandatory salute, retired CP Agbonleni in company of his wife inspected the parade in a motorcade, as he bade farewell to the officers in what was seen as his last official assignment as a police officer.

Thereafter, senior police officers gathered to pullout the retired Commissioner for Police in an emotional laden ceremony.
