Some people are alleging that the police even kidnap people, and pretend they are doing their work. They park a bus and load innocent people to one destination, then drive them to a police station and claim they were loitering near an armed robbery scene. They can also enter a bar, eatery or market and arrest many people and lock them, accusing them of being cultism suspects. Please what will be the punishment of the police? 98 Likes 1 Share |

Is it the citizenry that should assist the police or the police assist the citizens . Please extend this to civil defense, road safety, man o war , civilian JTF , boy scout, boys brigade etc. So if UGM is attacking police, i should go and assist the police or run for dear life. 15 Likes 2 Shares |

Security is everybody's job. The citizenry shouldn't watch as a security officer is overpowered or assaulted. Everyone should partake and condemn lawlessness and insecurity with one voice, regardless. This rule ✊. 1 Like |
