When the police arrest a bunch of citizens, often illegally, they ask each of them to show their ID card.

If a person is arrested justly, they don’t usually ask for ID cards.

Now, when the raid illegally, often to round up a bunch of people, they ask for their ID cards. They later release them after they’ve been bribed (settled)

It’s not that they want to release you if you show them your ID card. They simply want to know if you can implicate them. For example, if you’re an airman or a seaman or a soldier or a high-raking politician or anyone who can really put them in trouble.


If you a member of the forces, for example, and you don’t have an ID card and you’re put into a cell, even your superiors would later blame you for not carrying your ID card with you, and the policemen who have arrested you would your lack of ID card as a cogent excuse.

Now, if you’re rounded up for the purpose of raiding, if you show them your National ID card or Voter’s Card or International Passport or your Driver’s license, they won’t release you (not as long as they’re sure you won’t implicate them).

The only ID card they understand is MONEY. If you’ve not committed a very serious crime and you’ve not been arrested by an order from above, they’ll release you as long as you have the cash to give them (otherwise you would rot in cell with your ID card).

You're right but not all the time

What an observers view of the World Best Police Force.

Nigerian Police is a disgrace from Head to Toe

Until the Nigeria police are made to suffer for their crimes and abuse of police privilege, the situation won't change.

There's no one or institution that police or check police excesses. The police are not afraid to break the law or collect bribe in public because the system is rotten.

Until Nigerians demand their rights, these dirty skanks in black uniform and even the undisciplined soldiers who are wrongly used for police duties will keep abusing and harrasing law abiding citizens for money and ego.

What do you expect from a police force that are underfunded,lacks discipline and proper training and riddled with illiterates
Tell me, until they reform the police and overhaul the present police force as we have it, then am so sorry we Nigerians would forever be saddled with the mess called the Nigerian police force.

Hmmmmm... Nigerian police - a necessary evil.
