Ignorance is a ba thing. That tweet was made by the police themselves and the police have often stated that they embark on show of force patrols.

Ignore him.
It is his type who advised Peter Obi under the bridge in Onitsha.

Wickedtruths:

This does not only happen in Nigeria.

Go find out about show of force or surge patrol.

we're looking at the Nigerian context. When Nigeria police embark on a show of force, it's innocent citizens who get arrested while armed robbery takes place few poles from police checkpoints.

Show of force on who? Rioters or violent protesters?

No one cares about Joe Slow on the internet and the only thing worse than ignorance is arrogant ignorance.

Are innocent people the only people in the world? Why must the show of force be directed at innocent people? Isn't meant to show criminals that the police has the force to deal with them??

But of course you'd need to have common sense to reason through such simple things.

Knowing nothing and thinking that you know everything

1) It was the police that made that statement but that guy said that the statement was made by bloggers. #Knownothing

2) Policemen, including several inspectors general of police, commissioners of police, etc have stated that they embark on show of force patrols, but a strange person says that they do not. #Knownothing

3) This is not unique to Nigeria, it happens all over the world. #Know nothing

4) He says that police cannot have show of force because innocent citizens will bear the brunt. Police have been staging show of force patrols for generations and it is aimed at letting criminals know that the police is equipped to deal with them and letting the public know that the police is equipped to protect them. #Knownothing.

It depends. Each state has special units that the state government funds.

Sometime around 1996, in response to an increase in armed robbery incidents, the then military governor of Lagos, Colonel Mohammed Buba Marwa applied to the head of state, General Abacha, to create a special force to combat armed robbery incidents. Operation Sweep was thus created.

Operation Sweep was completely funded by the Lagos State Government. The state provided patrol vehicles and other equipment to the force. Operation Sweep was made up of soldiers and policemen.

Nigeria returned to civilian rule in 1999 and Governor Bola Tinubu converted Operation Sweep to Rapid Response Squad (RRS). The soldiers were removed and replaced with mobile policemen.

The Lagos State Government created the Lagos State Security Trust Fund. Individuals and organisationa can donate to the fund and the government also provides money to the fund. The Funs buys bullet proof vests, ballistic helmets, cars and other equipment to the RRS, LASTMA, The Lagos State Fire Service and other such agencies.

Wow thanks for the enlightening comment. This is so educating

Mathewrichard99:
This is highly commendable in Lagos.. All those Agberos that used to disturb flow of traffic should be handled in the language they understand. Also, as the Yuletide approaches, every dick Harry and John are moving to Lagos en masse to enjoy the seasons. As such, crime rates soars, best of time to have you guys to be proactive and not reactive. Great preparation.... Kudos

Lol at the bolded. The more you look, the less you see

Wickedtruths:
See convoy of brand new Hiluxes. I just remembered that Alexander Otti used 1.5Billion Naira to buy 2 Hilux.

😂😂😂

Wickedtruths:
These are urban Policemen. They are the ones who killed 7 kidnappers in a single night.

Simon Ekpa actually warned Ibo kidnappers from coming to Lagos that period. It really pained supporters of criminals like giddygiddy and Ibechris.

Show me my comment u think I am a yoruba man that support evil over good.



Show me my comments or u stop being a petty liar.

Good development

Lagos lead, others follow

True Love.
This is Good,but RRS- Must Not Take Lagosians back to their Olden days of Extortions- by looking into our Phones and Laptops and seizing them-to Claim they want to See Criminals!
•We know that They Can Do A Good Job, through their Training but should avoid Corruption - that can easily taint their Professionalism.
•Federal Government,
Should Continue to Increase The Salaries and Allowances of All POLICE Force and All -Security Apparatus In Nigeria - On Continuos Basis,
As being done in All the CONTINENTS of the World 🌎,For These Men and Women - Are Doing GREAT Works - Day and Night,
Year in ,Year Out To Keep Our Lives and Properties Save - from Terrorists- Bandits, Kidnappers and Criminals - within and Across the Borders!
God Bless RRS -IN LAGOS STATE,
GOD BLESS THE NIGERIAN POLICE 🚓 and
God Bless Lagos State.
God Bless Nigeria!

I know they're showing off their kits, no problem about that. The most important thing is that they shouldn't forget to do their job.

Are you from lagos or is any of your ipob relative from Lagos or why the noise ?

SlavaUkraini:
Show of Force to stop extortion and police brutality is what we want..

WHAT IS MY REWARD, FOR THOSE THAT STRIVE FOR THIS FEAT

The intensified patrols across Lagos are truly commendable, especially as we enter the festive season. Kudos to the RRS, CSP Shola Jejeloye, and the LNSA for their proactive efforts to keep our communities safe. We encourage residents to stay vigilant and make use of the emergency lines — together, we will ensure a safer #DettyDecember.

Your teward is good luck. You'll have good luck. What reward is better than that?

Buba Marwa introduced and kitted Operation Sweep that simply changed name to RRS

2025 is about to end , and security are still doing "show of force" pathetic.

This is how a police man should be kitted and look responsible to some extent. Not the Almajiri ones will have across board.

Thank you.
