“The Abia State Police Command has been inundated with a trending allegation circulating online by a social media blogger, accusing an officer in Aba of extorting ₦100,000 each as bail from 10 arrested suspects on 04/10/2024.

Preliminary investigation revealed that on 03/10/2024, the Aba Area Command received a complaint through  a written petition from the management of Life Stock Feed PLC Aba. The petition alleged that several staff members had misappropriated a substantial amount of money and made away with some production materials from the company. Based on this complaint, some  suspects from the company connected with the crime were arrested for investigation.

“ Mr. Samuel Okoye, the complainant in the viral post, came to secure bail for 3 of the arrested suspects. The IPO refused to grant bail, insisting  that investigation was still ongoing. Mr. Okoye was reportedly infuriated and was said to have threatened to “deal with” the IPO.

“The Command has since invited Mr. Samuel Okoye, but he has refused to honor the invitation stating  that his allegations  were made in anger against the IPO and that he has decided to let go. However, one of the arrested suspects confessed that some of his colleagues were in the habit  of defrauding the company. The suspect claimed he advised them to desist from such fraudulent acts but never reported them to the company management.

“While the command will  not tolerate any form of unprofessional conduct or corruption among its officers, any defamatory act to tarnish the image of the force will not be accepted. 

“The public is hereby advised to  verify the accuracy of information before making posts and any defamatory post against the command will be met with appropriate legal action.”- It reads.
