‘Okada riders are sleeping with our wives; pay our salaries now; pay us our 18-months salary; pay us our stipends and allowances now’, were some of the inscriptions on the placards carried by the protesting police constables in Osogbo, the Osun state capital, yesterday.

The police constables, recruited to complement the police structure in the state by providing intelligence, were inaugurated in May 2021, at Police Headquarters, Osun State, after their training in April 2021.

The protesting policemen, who were wearing uniforms, converged at Osogbo Grammar School area and marched through Oke-Fia, Alekuwodo before they stormed the Ola-Iya flyover to register their grievances.

Speaking on behalf of the protesting policemen, Constable Tijani Adewale, disclosed that they are committed to their duties, despite not being paid salaries, adding that three of their colleagues have lost their lives in the course of discharging their duties.

He lamented that commercial tricyclists and motorcyclists have snatched their wives, due to their inability to discharge their family responsibilities. His words: “We have gone to the local government, met with lawmakers and dignitaries in the state, yet no positive result. We lost three persons in Ikire and one in Iree. These people died in the course of discharging their duties.


“We are very dutiful, even though we have not been paid a dime. Due to unpaid allowances, tricycle and Okada riders have snatched our wives because of our inability to take care of them.“

Meanwhile, the state’s Police Commissioner, Olawale Olokode, who later joined them at the Ola-Iya bridge, ordered them to stop the protest. He assured them that the concerned authority will intervene and that issues will be looked into.

He said: “You are embarrassing the force with your protest; you should have channelled your grievances to the appropriate quarters. You are disturbing public peace with this your protests. As far as you are wearing this uniform, we expect you to maintain high discipline as a force man.”

Dem better go find Okada ride because that thing wey dem dey do not be work. Dem never pay conventional police finish, na wannabe dem go come pay?

After a committee is set up to look into the matter that is how the story ends without being resolved but adding more money to the committee members account

Nothing will be done!

Arrest them

Everything jaga jaga
Everything scatter scatter
One gunshot in the air

Some women are worse than dog.
Okada man fvcking you, how much is he going to give you? Bitch

Giving a man weapon and owing him is very dangerous.
He would definitely turn to his weapon as a means of livelihood.
Now you know why Nigerian policemen have upped there extortion game..

Okada vawulence

You can't be collecting okada men's sweat and not pay for it.
Good riddance to bad rubbish

And the police self no even shame to talk am.
Over one year without salary and Dem never die?
They should stop pretending. The roja they collect from the same okada men and motorists is more than their salaries

Those protesting are the permanent constables recruited like a year or two ago...
Those hoodlums in uniforms operating checkpoints are regular police officers and they are not owed, at least before 4th or 5th, their salary will be paid, they just want to be unfortunate

The wives must be insane!

Mmmmmm

Lol na payback time...


When you dey harass dem dey colet 50naira from dem...

Osun Okada men with the balls of steel

Ordinary okada men dey snatch una wives, if dem come see men with SUV wetin go come happen

You should not completely believe what those men say about Okada and their wives(public sympathy) The issue of why they haven't been paid should their salaries should be of more concerns to peace and security in that state
