P is for political and not public. That is my Nigerian definition

I know many of us do not know the full meaning of 'Police' despite the fact that we commonly use the word to refer to law enforcement officers. The word 'POLICE' is an acronym for Public Officer for Legal Investigations and Criminal Emergencies
Now you know the meaning.

No, "police" is not an acronym. It comes from the Middle French word "police," which means "public order, administration, government." Over time, it evolved into the term we use today to refer to law enforcement agencies.

Nah.....Public Officers Like Independent Criminals Everywhere!

The word "police" is not an acronym. It has its roots in the Latin word "politia," which means "civil administration" or "government." The term "police" was first used in England in the 15th century to refer to the maintenance of public order and the enforcement of laws.

The word “police” is not an acronym. It is derived from the Latin word “politia,” meaning “civil administration,” which in turn comes from the Greek “polis,” meaning “city.” Over time, the term evolved to refer to those who are responsible for public order and safety.

However, there are various humorous or informal acronyms that people have created for the word “police,” such as “Protection Of Life In Civil Establishment” or “Public Officer for Legal Investigations and Criminal Emergencies,” but these are not the official meaning of the word.

macanu:
It really looks like it the meaning which actually it fit it but I don't think it really the mean, police is police and it the English word that's all, that's all I see

Why not google it. That's how ignorant you people are. Someone posted something educative and here you are saying trash!!!

Makes no sense let's be honest with ourselves pls
