Good development..

If the armed yielding institution re held accountable for their misdeed, things would certainly work fine(Human Right) nd the trust battered would definitely return.

Believe me, the level of Intel that would be available to combat crime would shot up to the extent that crime rate would drop drastically...

Peace.....

Three policemen attached to Amukoko Division by names and service numbers: 25759 Sgt. Osaseri Saturday, 35 9075 Sgt. Segun Okun, 496833 Cpl. Adekunle Oluwarotimi have been tried and dismissed from the Nigeria Police for breeching the rules of engagement to wit reckless application of firearms.

The aforementioned Non Commissioned Officers(NCOs), committed the offence on the 11/01/2018, at about 2130 hours, at Ifelodun street, Amukoko, Lagos state when they disproportionately responded with bullets fired from their weapons at some youths alleged to have hurled some non ballistic missiles at them such as stones, sticks and bottles leading to the death of one of the youths and injury on another.

They were arrested, detained and tried immediately on the orders of the Commissioner of Police, Lagos state, CP Edgal Imohimi. The guilty verdict was passed on them by the Adjudicating officer who considered that the officers did not appreciate the situation critically and ought not to have applied the maximum force on the unruly youths.

Meanwhile the officers will be charged to court next week, while a duplicate copy of the Casefile would be sent to the Directorate of Public Prosecution( DPP) for legal advice.

Sequel to the above occurrence, the Commissioner of Police has directed all the Area Commanders and DPOs in Lagos state to warn their men against misapplication of force. He further warned that officers must abide by the Rules of Engagement ( ROE) as stipulated in Force Order 237.
SP Chike Oti Police Public Relations Officer Lagos State.

Good one. Meanwhile, to provide a long lasting solution. The Nigeria Police must raise the standards for which one can be recruited into the force. I.e. a graduate, etc
if the educational standard is raised,it means you no longer want the hausafulani to dominate the force.

Hmmm there salary is less than 50000 and they still lost it...

They're more dangerous now because they will be more frustrated...


They would have punish them rather than sack... an hungry man is an angry man

It doesn't matter how much their salary is. They are not the only hungry people around.
They are not the first set of people to lose their jobs neither will they be the last.
People lose their jobs even when they did nothing wrong but they still stay away from crime.

The punishment is not complete, they need to be prosecuted. Letting them go just like that is a slap to the wrist. Let the law take its course.

And after sacking them, what next? These unemployed policemen maybe allowed to roam freely at the end and what do you think they'll do?
what I think is you did not read the news well. they will be charged with murder and tried accordingly, so their case is still very much on

Future armed robbers.

These guys should be be made to face the full anger of the law,and the law of moses" an eye for an eye" should be applied here.

If these guys are some how released, they will go on to become armed robbers or kidnappers.

It seems they don't like their job, it will serve as a deterrent to others who think they can go against the law.

The police in this country probably needs a total overhaul. Few days ago I witnessed a case where policemen were shootin live rounds at a passanger vehicle on abuja kaduna expressway because the man was tryin to evade road safety officials as He didn't hav a valid license. They finally caught up with the driver and during the whole episode, three of the men were sharing a wrap of weed in the full glare of the public and mumbling rubbish. Truth is the Nigeria police is one organization I will be really ashamed of representing. Filled with the most despicable humans around with only a few good men.

But were these policemen provided with alternative weapons like tear gas or tasers. If the man only had a gun and was attacked by young thugs his first reaction will be to shoot. By now all policemen should have weapons other than guns with them. This could happen again in the near future. Sacking these men will not stop their colleagues from shooting if they feel threatened

the current policing method used by the NPF is not working, it is grossly ineffective. The whole structure of THE NPF needs to be overhauled.

othman Dan fodio's dream of dipping his nonsense Koran in the sea is already driving his children mad by shamelessly requesting other people's lands for cattle colonies,a subtle ploy to set colonies all over Nigeria.
It is this their archaic dream in 21 century that will consume them.
