Misuse Of Firearms: Police To Use Taser, Stun Guns – IGP by chinambusay: 8:50pm On Apr 25, 2019
The Inspector General of Police, IGP Mohammed Adamu, has disclosed that the police will now use taser and stun guns following the widespread misuse of firearms.  IGP Mohammed Adamu who revealed that the police will now use taser and stun guns while speaking at the inauguration of a Zonal Security Stakeholders’ Forum, a community policing concept for the Police Zone XI comprising Ondo, Osun and Oyo States, further revealed he had commenced the process of addressing factors that engender conflict and distrust between the citizens and the police, particularly issues bordering on misuse of firearms and sundry abuses of police powers.NAN reported that the police Chief who was represented by the Deputy Inspector General of Police, Taiwo Lakanu said; 

“Toward this end, we are in the process of migrating from total dependence on lethal weaponry as first line of police operations toward acquiring and deploying less lethal weaponry such as taser or stun guns.Under the new policy, personnel on low-risk policing duties like routine patrols, arrest duties, and civil disorder management will be armed with taser guns or stun guns as a strategic approach toward reducing incidents of fatalities associated with misapplication of lethal weapons by the police when faced with low level threats.’’
