Policemen Collecting N100 Embarrassing — NPF

The Nigeria Police Force spokesperson, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi has described as embarrassing the action of police officers who collect N100 from motorists in Nigeria.

The NPF spokesperson stated this while responding to a question from an X user on why some policemen extort road users.

According to him: “It’s pure corruption. It’s not allowed or acceptable. It’s condemned in its totality. 100 naira or whatever amount is being collected by some policemen (not all of them) on the road is embarrassing and does not portray police in a good light.

“In fact, the hatred and bad image of the police are tailored to this and some other isolated misconducts. Those you see on the road collecting dirty money do not represent our standards, values, and vision. It’s a matter of time.

“They will soon meet their Waterloo. He also stated that the IGP has set up a committee to tackle unprofessionalism in the force.
