“The Commissioner frowned at the poor character displayed by the officers in the course of their duties.

“Their actions —acosting an unsuspecting member of the public, forcibly searching his phone, and extorting money—are unprofessional and unacceptable.”-Ikenga said.

He further announced that internal disciplinary procedures have been initiated against the officers, in line with the Force’s internal code of conduct.

The Police Commissioner reiterated the Force’s commitment to upholding discipline, transparency, accountability, and public trust, stating that any abuse of office or corrupt practice would not be tolerated.

“Such misconduct negates the professional calling of the Police and undermines ongoing efforts to foster public confidence. It creates a wider trust gap between citizens and law enforcement,” the statement read.

The Command assured the public of its dedication to rooting out corrupt practices and maintaining the integrity of the Force.
