Police reply actress Shan George on dismissed officers

The Nigeria Police Force has responded to popular actress Shan George over the latter's position on dismissing officers guilty of any misconduct.

The actress advised the Police to either demote, suspend or reduce the salaries of officers found guilty of any misconduct rather than outright dismissal.

George said: “So I woke up this morning and am hearing about another policeman that has been dismissed for misconduct or maybe one offense or another.

“I’m thinking that not a good idea to be dismissing them. You can demote, you can suspend, you can reduce the salary.

“You now have to actually dismiss them and put them back into the society as jobless people.

“A qualified policeman who has been doing a police job for while and now back on the street as Jobless. What do you think about it? That’s not just right please.”

But reacting, the Police Spokesman, Muyiwa Adejobi said the Force is not a social club, cooperative society, or association but a regimented organisation

He said: "Those dismissed policemen are not fit to be in the NPF. NPF is not a social club, or cooperative society, or association, it's a regimented organisation, established and guided by the CFRN and other extant laws.

"It takes someone who has read the law or gone through the Nigeria Police Act 2020 or the Public Service Rules, or the Administration of CJ Act, to criticise the decision of the NPF management team on disciplinary matters, even at times, most of their misdeeds are criminal.

"So those who criticise the NPF, should study the records of Service and history of the dismissed officers, before further reactions. After all, Newton said Actions and reactions are equal and opposite."

the same police fired shots in aso villa in an ego clash somewhere in 2020...is that not a misconduct?

where was d npf 2020 ACT?
How many officers where dismissed?

I agree with Shan on this. Outright dismissal isn't the best option. Demote, and apply other sanctions

, I like this woman that year sha...
You are dismissing someone who knows much about the police force,
someone who knows how to handle guns,
Someone who has handled guns
Someone who I am very sure knows where to buy guns....and u want the country to be safe That is such an expensive joke...

All this police station radings I am very sure are been carried out or been supported by insiders.....God will heal the country

.

Don't just dismiss them!
They committed a crime and should be sent to the prison. Releasing them back to the street will only empower them to become hardened criminals.

Naija our country.
Democracy

Unfortunately they didn't even get the point the lady was trying to make. I believe she is concerned about security and the society at large. Most of the dismissed officers vent their anger on the rest of the society, committing heinous crimes!!

I expect the NPF to have a better way of handling this situation than dismissal please.

She think say na Nollywood we de act for here?

The police men here are real o. They commit the offenses for real and not acting like you people do on the screen.

They carry real guns and intimidate people for real.
If they pull that trigger it's going to be a real death and not costume death.

If you demote and reduce their salary and still give them guns to stand on the road, this time the frustration will be x100 and he will become a trigger happy cop.

After dismissal Make dem cha dey sure say dem no get extra weapon for awz oooo...... Before dem go open Gun Rental Services shop

Exactly

This is the reason y they kidnap people.

Kidnappers go see this kind mumu to kidnap leave them go dae kidnap innocent people.

For the first time in Nigerias history the police force is being sanitised and human beings with sense like with brains are against it.

Does she know how many lives this police corruption, greed and illegality has ruined?

I also don’t support killing an ant with a sledge hammer

You should not dismiss a police officer for minor offenses
