CSO Call On Authorities To Arrest Police Officer Who Threatened To Kill Over IGP by bilms(m): 9:06am On May 20, 2018 |
PRESS STATEMENT: CALLING ON THE NIGERIA AUTHORITY TO TAKE A DECISIVE ACTION ON THE DEATH THREAT ISSUED BY A POLICE MAN ON A CITIZEN WHO VOW TO WEAR A T-SHIRT CARRYING THE INSCRIPTION - IGP TRANSMISSION. We are calling on authorities to fish out the Policeman that made an open threat to kill a citizen who vow to wear the T-shirt carrying an inscription of the "IGP Transmission". The Police man name on social media platforms is Ahmed Rasheed which can be seen alongside this post. This is the height of unethical behavior coming from a Uniform personnel who is being paid with taxpayers money to protect and save lives. The Police man appears to be showcasing the level of impunity going on within the institution he is working. We wish to remind Nigerians and the world that the culture of mocking individuals in position of authorities on social media did not start today and will not end today. Our past Presidents and present President plus all the 1st Ladies were mocked on social media in Nigeria and other great countries of the wolrd. Head of Agencies and individual politicians were also mocked and cartooned in various publications on print & online. This culture has become part of those instruments which democracy is being measured with. Developed nations in the world have turned this into industries. There are print media houses, online platforms and television shows anchored by great men and women in countries where democracy has thrived. So, why are we making a mole out of anthill? Why will a Police man who did not care about when all those Presidents and their wives including other politicians were mocked, now come out on social media to issue a death threat to a citizen because the Inspector General of Police is involved? Is this an indirect message to Nigerians that the IGP cannot contain this democratic expression as a leader or what? Is this the best way to handle such matters? We need answers. On this note, we the Coalition of Civil Society Movements in Nigeria - COCISM NIGERIA and the good people of Nigeria hereby condemned the unethical behavior of the Police man and call on authorities to intervene immediately and ensure that the Police man pays for his action so as to deter any other Police man who share same violent notion. Failure to do the needful, we will not only mobilize Nigerians to take on the streets, we will make these Tshirts and wear it, snap photos to be posted online before coming on the streets to protest against the Police man's threat to kill innocent citizen and the lack of action by the authorities in Nigeria. We are also calling on the main stream media and other organizations to wade into this matter, we should not always wait for international media or organizations to wake us up on issues that concern Nigerians in our own country. We hope that the Nigerian authorities and the Police will appreciate our conduct and approach in strengthening our democracy by seeking for peaceful way out of this issue. Thank you. In love & peace. Signed: Ibrahim Garba Wala For: Coalition of Civil Society Movements in Nigeria. COCISM NIGERIA! |

The police guy is from the same region where a soldier threatened to kill massively for buhari and the guy is till walking around free till today. There is no democracy or justice in this country. As usual the policeman said wat was in the mind of 80℅ of people from that region. Those waiting for the police guy to be prosecuted will have to wait till eternity 1 Like |

This county does not have values. This is police IG Idris congratulating Mohammed Danjuma after he was recalled and promoted to CP and his salary arrears paid, same man who murdered 6 Nigerian traders in Apo in 2005. This is his congratulatory handshake as he was promoted to AIG.
