It's Not Legal For Officers To Search Your Phone Without Compliant | See Tweet by Gravitygist(op): 11:45pm On May 17, 2018
t is no longer news that Nigerian police this days harasses and intimidates the people they ought to protect by searching their phones and laptops forcefully without any complaints .

The Nigerian police today tweeted that its Not Legal for Officers to search your phone without any complaints. This implies that Officers don't have any right to search your phone or laptop anytime, anywhere EXCEPT you're subject to suspect or under investigation of which they will duely inform you before the search.

Below is the screenshot of the tweet by the Nigerian Police!

Only guilty G boys (ritualists) don't know this

No policeman can gain unlawful access to my precious porn vids, nude pics & browser history.

You need a warrant for that.

The fact is that everyone doesn't know that this illegal act by some officersis not constitutional and legal. The Imo Police PRO speaking to us the last time said " Officers who search people's phone and laptop without any complaints ends up in cell"
