The Inspector General of Police (IGP), Solomon Arase, has expressed worry over reports on crime being churned out by the media reports. This, he said, is rather projecting Nigeria as the worst-off in terms of crime.

Arase said the Nigerian Police Force was not relenting on improved welfare for officers and men but why much is not being felt or heard about the on-going reforms is because of the years of decay in the sector.

“We are not saying the various crime and criminalities do not occur but the rate journalists magnify the situation in their reports not only creates fears in the minds of foreigners but give the impression that the police is not working”. Arase who was on a one day working visit to Niger State gave instances with what he described as ‘over-bloated’ reports on the Fulani cattle breeders and farmers clash in Benue State and advise media organizations to always cross-check with the police to avoid negative consequences on Nigeria. “Nigeria is not as bad as reported in crime because no society is free from crime it is just that it varies in nature and magnitude. I think it will do us more good as a country if we learn how to report crime being committed in our society to avoid scaring foreign investors.

I did not see where he said nigerian police men are not corrupt

That means we should cover the truth because of investors.

Misleading topic...

Once again another false title...

Well I don't trust the Nigerian media anyways but I don't support hiding the truth to woo investors because they'll find the truth when they come to Nigeria.

And if the tribal, religious and communal clashes continue, the investors will have to leave Nigeria Leading to mass sacking of workers and increasing the rate of unemployment.

My opinion tho....

Slip of tongue I guess. He probably meant to say corruption is free of the Nigerian police (after taming the Nigerian police).
