I used to be at the fore front on the war of tongue lashing the Nigerian police, being a victim of police harassment and brutality, but after watching the video of the police college in ikeja, I have now had a change of mind, how do we expect the police to behave properly when where they are being trained is not even fit to train dogs, not to talk about training police men, should the police man/woman be blamed for soliciting for bribes? Should the police man/woman be blamed for behaving in an uncivilized way? I think the answer is obvious, I believe it is time we realised that men and women of the Nigerian police force are human beings like us, and they don't deserve to be treated like animals, the federal government should be held responsible for the actions of the police force, because they have failed in giving these people the basics for policing, and at such should be held accountable for the actions of the police, next time you see a Nigerian police man dancing azonto/alingo and drinking beer on duty, don't blame him, blame the failed system, because believe it or not, they are also victims of the failed system. #inmyhumbleopinion.

Of course they shouldn't be blamed, but passing the aggression towards innocent Nigerians as if we are the cause of their predicament is uncalled for.

I agree with u, but it still falls on the shoulders of the government for failing to instruct them properly,
