7 ways to reach the PCRRU to complain about police misconduct

The increasing cases of harassments and intimidation of citizens by law enforcement agencies has been a source of worry for the authorities.

In response, Nigeria’s Inspector General of Police (IGP) Ibrahim Idris established what he called the Police Public Complaint Rapid Response Unit (PCRRU) in November 2016.


IGP Ibrahim Idris established the PCRRU in November 2016
At the launching of the unit in 2016, the IGP said: “The Public Complaint Rapid Response Unit is a unit in the force saddled with the responsibility of receiving and resolving all complaints of police professional misconduct emanating from policing activities and operations nationwide.

“The unit is available 24 hours a day to listen to members of the public from across Nigeria.”

The PCRRU has proven to be an effective unit within the police force that is committed to protecting the rights of citizens.

According to Biodun Kekereola who wrote on Leadership, the PCRRU is capable of effectively bringing the public into the fight against police professional misconduct.

There are ways to reach the PCRRU. They are:

1. Website (http://npf.gov.ng/complaint/)

2. Phone numbers (08057000001, 08057000002)

3. Sms and WhatsApp (08057000003)

4. Twitter (@PoliceNG_PCRRU)

5. Facebook (www.facebook.com/policepcrru)

6. Email (policepcrru@gmail.com)

7. BBM (5BA2B5DE)

All these avenues have been made really user-friendly and available all day.

With all these, and with enough awareness on the part of the public, bad policing and professional misconduct would no longer go unnoticed and unchecked.

It is pertinent that every Nigerian knows about all these so that they can participate in ridding the Force of the so-called bad eggs.

The mere fact these avenues of complaint are available, and our police officers know that we can utilize them at all times, they would be wary of their almost inborn attitudes of carefree extortionist tendencies.

Moreso, this effort is being institutionalised, automated and made rapid and capable of being monitored. Like citizens journalism, it appears that citizens policing is already beginning to take shape.

That's a bad advice, this is one of the reasons Nigeria is not moving forward rather it retardes day in day out. Atleast there are means to send your experience. There are lots of app which allows a dual access to WhatsApp and BBM, create new email and many more... Using an alternative account without assigning you pictures or profile which made it easy to pass your message across.

Please if you can't help, don't discourage or create fear into those that are willing and able to help.

Thank you

I happened to report officers who were conducting illegal stop searches and basically going through people's phones without any grounds. Having these idiots rifle through my personal property was annoying as hell. I was thoroughly disappointed. No reference number, no call backs or action taken against those officers. The call handlers need to have a basic understanding on police powers. Rank and file are also to blame for the malaise. They should publicly reprimand erring officers. People also need to record and all such encounters. If you cannot record someone should record and help each other out. Something needs to drastic has to happen. I think civil litigation with also help when everyone starts taking NPF and its officers to court.

You are sending warning and threats to the general public not to report any maltreatment by the police. If the IGP mean business, DSS should be questioning Seun by now about your identity.
