NIGERIA POLICE has made itself overwhelmed, understaffed and inefficient with the mentality of doing whatever you want them to do as long as you can afford it.

Just as they did with Civil Defence (though they opposed it initially), instead of them to leave certain services for other agencies and focus on their core mandate, they are busy fighting against Peace Corp (which should help them in bodyguard work and restore their dignity), Traffic Warden Service (which should operate autonomously as stated in the law to control traffic) among others.

13 pictures to show that the NIGERIA POLICE has gone out of their core mandate in the discharge of their duties.

Following

1. If you can afford it, we can hold your bags and umbrella

2. If you are a foreigner, we allow you do anything because you pay more

3. Yeah, we can also be guardsman.
No wonder we are fighting the Peace Corp who wants to take away our source of revenue as bodyguard to rich people.

4. Talking about taking over functions, we survive by egunje on the roads, although by law we have nothing to do with traffic control.
That is why we ignore the law and court ruling which grants Traffic Warden Service autonomy thereby forcing them to remain under the police.

5. When we are on official duties, we also carry out other functions like dancing, sleeping and revenue collection.

6. When you see us on the roads, two things are likely to happen to you depending on your level of compliance.

7. Who says we don’t have helicopters like oyinbo. Anyway, the only time you see our choppers on duty is when it is newly commissioned or when a big man visits town.

Chai! Jesus Christ
Awon Ekelebe people(food don land)


Anyway, happy sunday to Lalasticlala and Mynd44

8. When we see an unarmed civilian vs when we see an armed robber

9. We got the same training for crowd control and traffic control so I guess I can use teargas canisters to control traffic as well

Funny but true. That's why they have lost their dignity and not respected amongst the populace.

10. Two police officers can protect one man while the rest of the town takes care of themselves. If there is any serious case you cannot handle, come to the station and make a report.

Meanwhile,

The Nigeria Police Force, with a staff strength of between 330,000 and 370,000, is short-handed, according to Idris. The IG claims the ratio of 1:400 for policeman to civilian population is below the United Nations recommendation. However, with 10,000 new officers currently undergoing recruitment, the police are on the right path. Yet, the Achilles’ heel of the police is the irrational deployment of their workforce. A former IG, Solomon Arase, lamented that “100,000 officers carry handbags for wives of moneybags and politicians.” Nothing has changed with Idris. These officers should be protecting the public, not only the VIPs.

11. We gave the order, we piss on it!

12. To fight boredom, we fight each other.

I have said it befor and I will say it again. Nigeria police need to be reshuffle with many of them dimissed
You don't give gun to illiterate.
Only graduate should be given gun with lots of mental test.

Nigeria police force is a calamity

13. Forget about what they wrote on our logo, when addressing us; don’t forget to use the word “FORCE”.

Lol,

There is no law to be enforced by the police reasons for wrong priorities. Shame on them.

The country itself is a bigger joke.
The earlier we chant it down, the better for us and our offsprings.

I fear a police with a gun than an armed robber holding the same gun. Nigerian police treat civilians like goat

They just killed a certain vampire who, along with his gang members; all captured BTW, is responsible for the deaths of tens if not hundreds of people.

I guess that narrative doesn't fit your obviously bias and mischievous thread.

Nigeria Police still got a. long way to go but they shall get there.

NPF been doing comedy since AD 1...
