Many Nigerians are ignorant of the laws of the country and react emotionally and boldly at that, basking in their ignorance. No where in the world will security guards deny entry to police officers no matter the circumstance after proper identification and this is clearly stated in the write up that most people have chosen to ignore.



Where we ought to react we are docile. So disheartening cry

For you ordinary citizens, it's okay.

But for a security personnel, the constitution empowers them to enter any public place such as an estate.

They should never be obstructed.
I understand you. Try also to understand the guards predicament. If it’s here, the guards won’t open without authorization from inviter, CSO or estate exco

Because of kidnappers in police uniform, the president here have instructed the guards at gate not to open to men in uniform without authorization from him or CSO.

Still not the faults of the guard , some estates have strict instructions to guards not to let police in without explicit permission from the estate leadership...this is to forestall cases of illegal harrasment of estate dwellers by rogue cops
Why didn't They call their management there or cso to handle the situation this matter demands common sense...

Now, tell me why misfortune won't be the entire NPF's portion this 2022?

No police personnel will have joy in their life. Na sorrow go end their miserable lives from A - Z.

Re: Lagos Police Confirm Arrest Of Magodo Estate Security by femarse: 1:29pm On Jan 03, 2022
you can not make a private law in your room and expect it to affect police officer talkless of commisioner of police, those security guards were the biggest fool anyone can be , the guy is even in uniform with full escort and you are making a private personal law apply to him .....you absolutly dont get it they deserved serious beating

It's many people's property. The many people gave an instruction to the security details that the many people employed that nobody comes in except one of the many people the person is looking for is called and notified. Now, is it clear or you need further simplification?
I think such rules, I don't like calling them laws because they are not, were made for securing the estate. Now, this is where I have an issue with the guards. In what way does a top security officer like the CP constitute a security threat to the residents? They were just overzealous and nothing more. Even if the CP wanted to just enter the estate and move around the environment without visiting anyone in particular, it was not their right to stop him. I know we hate the police but a CP does not deserve that kind of treatment

you dont understand, u might want to take a look at the laws that established the police force, it is absolute to some certain degree, the estate is not exempted , the president you are quoting might even be the one they are coming to arrest .... and sometimes they can even be in an covert operation that they dont even need to tell u anything.....and obstructing them is also an offence .....most important part of the whole ordeal....the guy is in uniform, with a full escort with even a bike escort....the security guys lack common sense .... what are they thinking? that they will go to court and win for denying a commisioner of police from entering an estate?...

How dare you stop the commissioner of police from entering an estate after having properly identified himselfhuh

Who gave them the licence to operate in the first instancehuh

you don't have sense..the rule is call the person you want to see ..what if the person does want to see him.

No “rules and regulations “ governing the operations of any estate is above the Law of the Land.

Uniformed security Policemen on duty are not bound by estate rules o! Talk less of a whole CP and his team of vehicles, including dispatch rider! Ahhhh!!!

Don’t get yourself into trouble.

leave idiots, Nigerians are too daft and sentimental to say the truth,y stopping the cp, wasn't it obvious he wasn't a threat, the estate guards just wanted to do oversabi and show they were doin their jobs forgetting the legal powers of the police and other govt officials, there's ntn overboard in what the cp did.... I'm nt sure they'll stop a military general in his full convoy knowing the soldiers will brutalize sense into their heads, we like the hard way down here in Africa

GreyLaw:
He had no warrant of arrest. He had no right to enter the estate without permission. Even the president of the federal Republic of Nigeria has no right to enter without permission. He would be granted permission for his person and office, however, legally there is no law giving him the right to enter a purely residential area where no crime has been committed.

What you're saying is that the CP needs a warrant to commute within his jurisdiction? I guess we have the first erudite SAN on Nairaland! grin grin grin

Every other thing you wrote is pure conjecture and baseless. "He could have left the place and arranged unknown gunmen..." all that is nonsensical and criminal at the same time.

And thank God you are not him. Such attitude of yours belongs in he class of Buratai, people who behave foolishly because they wield guns. People like you shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a weapon.
The job of the Police is 70% crime prevention, so he does not require a crime report before he acts!

I didn't bother to read it to the last paragraph after reading more than 2/3 of it to discover the lies in there rejoinder. Summary of there so called public statement is, if Nigeria were to be a normal country where the rule of law holds, the CP or AIG will be jobless by now. May God bless and save Nigeria from impunity
Re: Lagos Police Confirm Arrest Of Magodo Estate Security by GhostWisperer: 1:51pm On Jan 03, 2022
Nigeria police aren't even worth their value in any measurement.

If you believe any private security will prevent a full convoy of a commissioner of police then you will believe anything!

Nigerian police are the most corrupt, mentally lazy and lack self-respect nor do they care about common sense, de-escalation or law.

They make the law themselves.

Oga don’t get yourself into trouble o!

If I was the CP, the license of that security company will be withdrawn before the week is over, the security men and the owner of the company will appear before a Magistrate for obstructing the convoy of a security team, etc.

Unless CP does not think like me.

Stop fooling yourselves.

The CP with the full convoy can enter anywhere, even government house Lagos, without prior appointment. It’s when it comes to entering into people’s houses that they require a warrant or appointment.

This is Naija o!

For those quoting me, let me tell you something
You think those security will do that without a standing order? There is more to the story than we know and I clearly won't believe the police side of it because they are naturally liars.
even in Nigeria, the police do not have absolute power. They are just criminals abusing power same with the Nigeria Army

big estates on Lagos island wont stop an ordinary police once you are on uniform not to even talk of a CP after introducing himself already
no, they shouldn't stop a police in uniform who is on official duty or investigation or arrest.

If the police is on uniform and is on private courtesy call or social visits, he must follow the protocols.

Most Nigerians are abuse magnets and that's why police treat you like shiiiit!

The Security guys were totally at fault and overzealous. He his the number one security officer in the state. They should have seen his convoy and the his security team. If he had identified himself, he has every right to enter any area or community in the state whether gated or not. It is not about been intoxicated with power, but the authority that comes with his office. Lets call a spade a spade.
the governor is the number security officer of each state to start with.

Being a commissioner of police doesn't make you the owner of anywhere. He wasn't there on official duty. He was there to- use his fancy lying words- meet a "strategic partner" but we all know he's there for a social visit or party and at that point the normal checking-in should be observed.

Africans just love the power that comes with an office but not the responsibility and sacrifice.

I remember then, one would pay for a front seat in public transportation company from Port Harcourt to Lagos or Warri and a police man in uniform is a passenger as well will insist on having the front seat.

Same police will stop a private or commercial vehicles then and arrogantly demanded to be lifted along the road.

Yea with the uniform you can do no wrong

So we should not be surprised at his public show of shame
