An estate is a not private property Mr sabinus and secondly,even if it's a private property provided there is reasonable grounds of suspicion that a crime is been committed,d police can still come in....The powers of d police are very enormous if u don't know...Go get d police act and see for ursef

Good evening sir. It shall not be well with you sir.

People get overly emotional and even hypocritical over this issue because a police officer is involved.

1. The Commissioner of Police Odumosu didn't need to give advance information of his coming to the Estate security men because it would be stupid to for him state his movement. Of course, giving such information would require the CP's security details to secure the Estate gate security until he arrives.

2. On arrival at the Estate gate and having PROPERLY identified himself as CP of Lagos State, he ought to have been allowed in immediately. Keeping him at the gate is unnecessarily exposing him to possible attack by criminals. Even a military formation would know better than keep a properly identified CP exposed to danger at its entry point.

3. CP Odumosu didn't need to tell the Estate security men the exact house he was going to before being allowed in. That's a classified information until his details secures the house for his safety.

4. Deliberately tagging the CP's visit as social to denigrate him is pure IGNORANCE because even a 'common' DPO is always listening to his radio equipment and giving directives anywhere he is. The fact is that when not on official leave, a CP is at work everywhere and every time.

5. I doubt if the police singled out that widow for arrest for nothing. She may have jumped into the matter and said unsavoury things. Being a resident in an Estate, I am familiar with some 'radical' busybody residents that would jump into issues without complete knowledge.

6. The truth is this incident was avoidable if only the Estate security was more professional and less power-conscious. Their unprofessional attitude activated power-tussle mode in the OFFICIAL state police force to show their constitutional superiority. The irony in this drama is that when armed criminals show up at the Estate, it is the official state police men that are called in to risk their lives.

7. By the way, is an estate which has individually-owned houses a private property or a community? If Magodo Brooks is NOT owned and rented out by one person as its private owner, is there any difference between this Estate and for example Ajegunle in the eyes of the law?

8. Yes, Nigeria police has many outright criminals as members but it is still the only one we have to enforce law and order and maintain security.

JohnBullMySon:
I like the fact that you try to be objective but still your points are very biased and obviously trying to justify the police.

Firstly, you should know that hotel and estate security don't joke with unauthorized entry. They get sacked and can enter jail due to a resulting crime. Hotel security once prevented DSS from arresting Suleiman till Fayose came to intervene. That is stupid bravery though considering the power these agencies have officially and unofficially.

Secondly estate is shared private property not public ground as the police is claiming. Any policeman without a warrant as well as military officer not on official assignment has no right to enter anyone's private property without informing the owners. That's why the estate is making it clear that he came for a social function.

Lastly I know the estate too is lying by saying that they were assisting him. That's a big lie because that wouldn't lead to any arrest. The security men were likely preventing him because he did not disclose his intentions to them. But legally they're right.

So whether you look at it emotionally or objectively. The Policeman is very wrong here. Estate is private property not public space

iokpebholo:
They will always say things to justify their actions.The private security guards need some lessons.

TUTU147:
many Nigerians will judge base on hatred they have towards the police organization,but the truth is that the cp cannot just begin to arrest people without reason.civilian security stopping a cp with his escort just because you want to show the estate people you can stop anybody.

TUTU147:
If na me be the cp I will not only arrest them but will beat them up.You have the audacity to stop a commissioner of police just because you are working for one estate.Give honour to whom honour is due

nedekid:
Well said.

iwaeda:
You like defending injustice.

At this point, the executives, members of the estate security committee, the estate CSO and some residents had converged at the estate gate to plead with the commissioner on his way out with the hope that his anger would have subsided after enjoying the party.
To our amazement, the commissioner came down from the car on his way out, said he was insulted by our estate and further instructed that the remaining security operatives who replaced the arrested ones should also be arrested.

“This resulted in complete shutdown of the estate as no one could go in or come out as our estate gate is automated and the operatives with the access token were all arrested with the token. This further resulted in the traffic jam that occurred on CMD Road for over 4hrs.

“Pleas from different angles were made to the Commissioner with no yield until about 11 pm when he finally gave in. The estate was finally able to bail the security operatives who were already put in cell, the resident with her children who were put behind the counter at about 11:30pm.”

Akinsete19:
How can an estate which road is manage and control by local govt be a private property?

Only houses inside the estate are private property, not the estate. Nobody buy a house with any road.

Maxymilliano:
For whatever reason for God sake the CP should have been accorded respect and allowed entry. He is not an obscured personality. This is not the case of Odumosu now but CP.

lexy2014:
How does everything that u say he has said justify the actions of the CP?

lexy2014:
What's wrong with stopping a commissioner of police?

bafsonbaf:
resident who happens to be a widow that was passing by with her three children was also ordered to be arrested alongside her 3 children by the commissioner of police. Her offense was that she tried to intervene to understand the situation....

Just imagine, who send her? She is now intervening in matters concerning the CP, Nigerians you too dey look down on your leaders. On a devt country he just need to identify his self as CP that's all no need of ID verification or any rubbish, you people are having a civilian dumb brain that's y
