Rugaria:
I still ask: when are we going to see igbo DPOs in the far north? Not to talk of igbo police commissioners and co?

The immediate past commissioner of police in Borno state is Damian Chukwu.

Bkayyy:

It is better to have people like this even if he is a native of sambisa forest than CSP Nwafor in the name of having fellow Igbo man.
We believe in meritocracy

True. I went for a burial in Orifite, Anambra State and the son of the deceased and other bigwigs like OB Jackson had only Northern policemen guarding them. In fact, OB Jackson's convoy had over 15 of them. I asked them why and was told that they refused to have any other policemen except Northerners.

ODUBEZE:
This one apply sense

But ehn na northerners full army and police ooooooo

Can an Igbo man be a DPO in the North

No read meaning to my question, just asking for the sake of unity and ONE Nigeria

The immediate past commissioner of police in Borno state is Damian Chukwu.

Diplomatic approach .if other men in uniform can use same approach. Truth is,no matter how aggrieved the youths are,they still gat some sense. [color=#990000][/color]

Thats the difference between igbo and other tribes. Igbo people dont hate or like bc of tribe or ethnicity, they hate or like you because of what you do unlike other tribes that hate you bc of the tribe you come from. Igbos just want things to be working, if Nigeria starts working today, ipob will die a natural death.

Rugaria:


I'm not playing tribal... Just trying to squash those who all a sudden are blaming the igbos for the unrest.. That's not fair

Pls leave those doing the blame game after all the reasonable ones have countered that. Only a fool like some CERTIFIED ZOMBIES like keep peddling that. But we all know them. So don't bother about that

DamZik:
Diplomacy at its peak. I remember the wise soldier at Osogbo.

Like for Garuba.

Share for Buhari/Osinbajo

Bros you dey stay around benin

sixtus3606:



whoever has that DPO's number, should please reachout to me. I wish to bless him with a token.

well done CSP Garba.

Truly, the man deserve commendations and encouragement.

if lekki protesters had listened to advice of obeyin the curfew they would still be alive

YOUR HEAD NO CORRECT COS SAND SAND FULL AM

Fsekillmonger:
Ok maybe am the one missing something here ...boys came to the station to burn it..and while the cops were flying fence .some one set up a podium and mic and speakers for the DPO in the heat of the moment?
This reportage seems fake to me, story no dey add up

How long does it take to set up a podium in this situation? Less than five minutes. A table and a recharge loudspeaker they already have in the station. I don't think the news is fake.

thotsofnaij:
I couldn't stop laughing at this

ODUBEZE:

Nepotism is evil, it's corruption

It's killing ONE Nigeria!!!

Kiss the truth.

I will have a thousand Garba than a single devilish Nwafor in any police formation in Anambra state. There is no basis for comparing them. One is a human being and the other a satanic agent out to kill joy in families


God punish Nwafor

Nostradamus1:

No

Disarming personality. IGP in making. Kudos.

jumper524:

I'm impressed

RABIU GARBA: A CHEERY PIECE OF INFO

A friend who lives at Onitsha told this story and it was a refreshing departure from the usual narrative, considering the harrowing experience of the past week.

Rabiu Garba is the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) at Fegge Onitsha. He built a borehole for the neighbourhood without any fund raising.

He organizes soccer tournaments for the youths of Fegge at their stadium where he also goes to play table tennis weekly.

For Rabiu Garba, Fegge is his home. Fegge is his community.

He has attended almost every church and every event in the area as he is invited because he is accepted as one of them.

When the rampaging youths came to burn his Police Division yesterday, he neither fought nor fled.

While his men were panicked, he walked out to meet the mob with the courage of a man who had nothing to fear.

They recognized him and the angry chants were silenced! Most of the youths could vouch for him as a professional cop and a role model for many young men in the community.

They even granted him audience to address and counsel them before the mob dispersed.

It had nothing to do with his tribe.
It had nothing to do with his religion.
He was just a model cop.

Yes, there are still good cops.

Thank you DPO Rabiu Garba.

blazepascal:
lol dpo get mind o

hahhaha, Na so o.

Wow, he's the people's favourite.

blazepascal:
lol dpo get mind o

He is a grassroots policeman, he did borehole and often play football with the youth of fegge, Onitsha on Saturdays. Even attend occasions, if he was invited.

Intelligent Dpo.....


Kudos to you Sir....

This is the way to talk.... I said it yesterday that 9ja police will keep on respecting the youth.

He said that we don't want SARS anymore.

Very interesting

Commentor:


That's why I take my cane with me everywhere I go.

lol

Just check well his mum must be an Igbo woman

Your insanity is legendary. I don't even know how to converse with you. It's so impossicant.

You misunguided in every ramifications.

Pathetic!

wonder233:
May you be unfortunate if you say the lekki incident triggered the hoodlums. The policeman that was hacked to death in that morbid video in mushin-olosan. Didn't that happen before lekki? The ones that were killed and their stations burnt in ajeromi-ifelodun, didn't those happen before lekki? Wasn't it after the hoodlums you invited with your rhetoric of "revolution" embarked on wanton killings that the governor declared curfew? Till now, all we saw in lekki is soldiers who shot into the air. And that's what you hypocrites are putting forward as the face of the protest, you've withdrawn the initial fake videos,.pictures and casualty figures. All you pseudo-woke fools deserve to be shot.

Fortunately, I didn't.

Ohizman73:


Did soldiers kill any protester in Benin ,Edo-state before they started their orgy of violence that was copied in lagos ,which prompted the gov to declare a curfew ,which lead to the incident.Evertbody is now using the Lekki incident to justify the wave of violence. hoodlums and all had started unleashing mayhem before the Lekki incident.

This is what I tell all corps members posted to any remote villages, don't go and oppress but go and make an impact. Engage the community and the people therein. You are doing all that for the rainy day.

Now when you begin to benefit from their supreme sacrifice.....

For your enlightenment, protest is a civil right irrespective of curfew or whatsoever.

IamPlato:

Long may you live sir

It’s good idea but my fear is the community leaders and indigene. Who will be hiding there children all because it’s community issues. Most of the community leaders will be biased on this. And the party in power at the state level will hijack the police to oppress the opposition.

uuzba:

Community policing.
That is the solution. Let each state and region police themselves.

What we have now is disconnected Federal Police sent anywhere in Nigeria anyhow. All of them disconnected from the indigenes. Hence all the issues and that's why people just burnt all the stations.
