I think the NSCDC Act 2003 and the amendment of 2007 mandates civil defence to guard all government infrastructurees with pipelines being specifically mentioned (not sure of the section)hence the NSCDC boys on duty were there as of right and not on 'illegal duty'. It is also noteworthy that these NSCDC guys were trained by the Nigerian Army and their rules of engagement must be in line with the Army's which is to ask questions and or request for identification, a loud shout to halt before opening fire if need be for that. I have had cause to interact with men and officers of the military (on internal security or peace-keeping abroad) and they always try to avoid joint operations with the police due to the attitude of shooting first and asking questions later. The reason for the above epistle is to establish a background that the Nigerian Police are known for LIES, covering up of crimes and criminals, recklessness and a devil-may-care attitude among security agencies and the public at large. In other words, the story by Miss Ngozi Braide is full of crap.#shikena# 3 Likes |

How can the NPF send only four officers to tackle pipeline vandals? , How come NSCDC officers will run away after disarming. some police officers? Many things are not lining up in this NPF yarn. |

Former lagos police PRO sunday mbah is a billion times smarter than this braide woman;people like this should not be in the police!she should have been sacked by now,serious examples must be set if we are to input any sense of sanity in the way most policemen whose erstwhile carelessness and lack of retraining has caused them to be so without a sense of direction in the way things should be done. The lagos state police statement is a sham and a big disgrace to ngozi braide and the Nigeria police;she must be sacked so others in her line of business will learn a great and well deserved lesson. The civil defense operatives are better trained and more civil. One issue that must be tackled in this country is the issue of supperiority among uniformed operatives;most men in the army don't have any regard for the police,mobile policemen hardly have any regard for regular policemen,policemen who knew when civil defence operatives went about without arms can't come to grips with the fact they now carry arms"they can't understand why civil defence operatives will be arms bearing" They all must be made to understand that they are equal as uniform men in protecting the citizens and asset of Nigeria but only different in rank. The lower ranks from sergeant down should be massively retrained,punished heavily when they err and made to watch on cable how police from other parts of the world operates. If you have seen firsthand how an erring soldier is punished,you will understand why they are so in line and know why the vast majority of the police have failed. The lack of retraining and engaging of men who shouldn't be in the police in the first place is the sole fault of past IG's of police. There are still great policemen out there who dish out services expected of the police though. 1 Like |

I am also sure that the Nigerian constitution places the Nigerian Police as the No.1 agency with regards to the security of lives and properties.. Especially in a democratic dispensation. Even the army does not have as high a jurisdiction in security matters as the police except in special cases where the Federal government has delegated them to work or in a state of emergency situation. This means that all para-military agencies fall under the Police. #Case closed. |

Pukkah: Wonders shall never end!police are at fault. The area in question is where we are erecting poles on the onging NIPP project at Imagbon community is where this guys operate,and police are part of them. Every day they will go and collect money from them as settlement. How i got to know this is that since i don't understand yoruba and have been seeing these police every day passing into that thick bush area one day i asked the contractor am supervising what these police has been looking for here on daily basis, he told me the guy that was making call at that junction was informing their gang(vandals) that they should come out and settle police that they have come. There is no crime in this country police are not away. 1 Like |

unamid: It a pity that many people of this forum are critized the police PRO for her comment on this matter. The woman explained how the incident happened but due to the hatred we have for the police people did not believe her. I was expecting intelligent people who had comment on this matter to ask some questions from NSCDC spoke man and police PRO inorder to know the truth of matter but they didn't but instead of that we just concluded in our heart that police was at fauit. The NSCDC mentioned that they loss two of their personel in the encounter,if it is true? He should have mention their names for us and also their corpses to the media. If we look at this story NSCDC spoke man did not tell us what really happened. They have the opportunity of taking picture of police inspector I.D.card,walkie talkie and his pistol but they can not show us the corpse of their member even their. In this matter i don't believe police pro lied. Police pro mentioned DC security of PPMC,mr Mosimi that he is the one who called police why alleging police again,i think this man we stand as a witness for police. On the aspect of the suspects that the NSCDC said they police for their rescue after arresting them,the story look some how. No security in naija will arrest suspect without searching him or her not to talk of trained security personel. i don't agreed with them on that. If suspects are with them why they did not search them and collect their phones. Another question i will like the NSCDC man to clear is that did your commandant at the scene of the crime gave order to disarm,arrest, handcuff and leg chain the police inspector and his men because they are few. NSCDC should provid more evidence to nail the police instead of alleging them. I know you're a policeman, and this sorry post is exactly why the NPF is the most hated security agency in the country. You're a compound fool. eeediooootttt!! |

Police is currently torturing an officer of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence (NSCDC) Mr. Olanrenju Gbedeogun to make a statement that contradict to the true picture of yesterday crisis where Police officers attacked the civil defence officers, free vandals and Killed 2 (two) officers of NSCDC. Source at the Owutu Police Station Ikorodu, Lagos State, Nigeria hinted us that Police authority is doing this to back-up their claim before President Jonathan that their men (Police) were attacked by nscdc officers and that they (Police) knew nothing about the death of the 2 (two) officers of the corps. A police officers who felt bad at Owutu Police Station Ikorodu on condition of anonymity told us that if care is not taking urgently Mr. Olanrenju Gbedeogun an officer of the Corps will be killed by his colleague before day break, already he has spent over 24hrs against the rules of detention of suspect. Mr. Olanrenju Gbedeogun was among NSCDC officers that escaped from the scene of vandalization where Police killed two of his colleagues, he was arrested by Police where he was hiding for his life. |

They are both liars direct from the pits of hell and the go about roping innocent citizens for cooked up crimes. Would any of those uncultured agencies allow a suspect to make calls while arrested? Indeed this is just a reflection of how useless FG civil servants and agencies are. Truly I would have preferred both teams to execute and finish off each other. Nonsense |
