According to an online report, a Range Rover owner was shocked to discover that his vehicle which was stolen at gun point earlier this year, has been auctioned after it was recovered by police operatives in Rivers state. Read the full details below;

This Range Rover was stolen from Dennis Banigo at gunpoint in February, 2017 in Port Harcourt. He reported the case at the Elelenwo police station, Port Harcourt. This October, the same car was found parked at a Police station in Okporo. When the owner went to recover his vehicle. He was told by the Police that his stolen vehicle although still parked at the Police station has been auctioned early October, 2017. I wonder when it became police job description to auction stolen Vehicles. let us prevail on the police to return this vehicle to Mr Dennis Banigo.

Iro ooo, won ti ya wereh

Nigeria Police just won't stop dragging their names in muds. This is getting too serious. They'd be the ones to release criminals just cos their boss has greased their palms. Apparently our Police are the bigger criminals.

I'm shook! He should go and meet the new owner fa? That is pure nonsense!

We have a dead system and people like you encourage it! Its legal for them to sell his car that he reported stolen just cause he didn't come and reclaim it fast enough. Under 1 year sef. Just rubbish!!

Wetin con be the difference between the thieves and police now?

I weak for your comment oh Bros.

QuotaSystem:
To be fair, the police have been auctioning recovered but unclaimed vehicles after advertising them in national dailies for as long as I can remember. The original owner must have missed the advertisements and the vehicle was auctioned to another person for a low price. I can only fault the police for not contacting the original owner once the car was found, since he had already made a report and presumably dropped his contact details.

The owners best option is probably to contact the successful buyer and persuade him to give back the car after paying him what it cost him at the auction; this is because the auction is a legally recognized and regulated process.

My two cents.

9ja police

Arm robbers stole his car, police sold it....whi be d actual thief here

And I can bet the buyer of the car is a police man....
....
And somewhere in Aso rock, one man wants to stop corruption

Dem wan gada moni buy new weapons na...

Those robbers are connected to the police officers.

Bunch of rogues. They learnt that from the current IGP. The same applies to Okada seized in Lagos. It is either police converted it to personal use or they sell to neighbouring states

DPO wants it

police madness

Is it really d fault of d police? When from time immemorial community elders and other leaders of thought have always pushed community bad eggs terrorising neighborhoods with stealing, robbery, rape, drunkenness and other forms of troubles into the police force. Its time they stop recruiting society misfits into security agencies. Morally upright ppl need to fill up the security agencies to properly police the populace

Otida .... nothing is better to qualify this men in black other than


BARAO OLEEE ELERIBU ANOFIA LOSSERS

NPF----Thieves!!!

Where is the thing self.

It is finished

Nigerian police tho..........

Clearly indicates that the police do not have an efficient or effective network. Once a car or other property is recovered by the police anywhere in Nigeria, it should be uploaded on a central system that would inform every single police station throughout Nigeria.

What is so hard about this?

Nigerian police will never seize to bring shame to this country. Can u imagine? And they knew too well that the guy reported that his car was stolen...I won't be surprised if nah them even snatch am in the first place.

Thanks for your two cents. I disagree though. The owner should sue the police for not contacting him and auctioning his vehicle. Also, i will need to see evidence of advertisements for the vehicle.
