One of those transferred is the embattled former Officer-in-Charge,
Anti-Kidnapping and Anti-Cultism Squad, State Criminal Investigation and
Intelligence Department, CSP Akinade Adejobi.
Adejobi and his officers, some weeks back, were
alleged to have collected N50,000 for the bail of one Blessing Taiwo, over an
alleged theft. His men were also accused of sexually harassing Blessing’s younger
sister, Florence, whenever she comes to see the detained Blessing.
The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Edgal
Imohimi, peeved by the allegation, ordered the immediate removal of Adejobi as
the OC in charge of the section, while investigations continues.
Imohimi has also set up a committee, headed by the
Officer in Charge of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS), Olatunji Disu. The
committee was to probe the allegations raised against Adejobi and his men, and
also to present its findings and make recommendations. A month after the
committee met and made findings available to Imohimi, nothing had been heard
about the matter.
Yesterday, sources close to PSC disclosed that
Adejobi and other nine senior policemen had been moved out of Lagos State.
It was gathered that Adejobi was moved to Jigawa
State. The sources also revealed that Adejobi’s amiable younger brother,
Olumuyiwa Adejobi, was also moved and is expected to resume at his new post
immediately at Adamawa State.
The Area ‘A’ Commander, Lion Building, an Assistant
Commissioner of Police, Mr Olusola Joseph Akinyede, was deployed to Ekiti
State. The sources also said that the Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) in Charge
of Administration, Lagos State Police Command was also affected in the
transfer.
