N50,000 police bribe: Edgal orders removal of OC Anti-Kidnapping

The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Edgal Imohimi, has ordered the immediate removal of the Officer in Charge of Anti-Kidnapping and Anti-Cultism Squads, a Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP), Mr. Akinade Adejobi over alleged abuse of office.

 According to Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Olarinde Famous-Cole, Edgal has requested that all parties involved in the alleged malpractice and sexual molestation case come for an interview at the police command on September  5, 2017 at 09:00am, including the alleged victim in the publication. 

Famous-Cole said: " The CP has also directed that the DC Panti commence a discreet and indept investigation into the allegation of the police action. To ensure an impartial investigation the CP has ordered the immediate removal of the O/C Anti-Kidnapping CSP Adejobi back to the command.  The Ag/CP Edgal Imohimi is worried about this allegation and wants justice to be done. 

"The  CP is reassuring Lagos citizens that every officer found indicted by their actions or inaction in regards this matter will face the full weight of the police regulations. The era of slap on the wrist of police men whose behaviour tarnish the force is over. The new CP has a zero tolerance of every form and any form of indiscipline and corruption."
