We’ll Review Deployment Of Policemen To VIPs – Force PRO

The Police Force Public Relations Officer, Prince Olumuyiwa Adejobi, has said that there will be a  review of the deployment of policemen to individuals tagged Very Important Personalities (VIPs).

Adejobi made this known in a statement via his Twitter handle while reacting to a viral video of an unidentified VIP seen being escorted on foot by about seven armed Mobile Policemen.

The Police PRO was responding to a Twitter user with name Oluyemi Fasipe, who posted the video requesting to know who the man in the video was and why he had so many policemen securing him.

The police spokesperson condemned the act and disclosed that the Force had set up a committee to look into the process of withdrawing the Police Mobile Force (PMF) from such services.  He also promised to fish out the Policemen in the video and bring them to book.

“This is condemned. We will fish out these men. It’s even disgusting. We have set up a committee to look into the process of withdrawing our PMF/tactical men from such services and use them for the announced Quick Intervention Squad.

“Deployment of policemen to individuals will surely be reviewed and regularised.

“When the committee submits its report, the Acting IGP will act as fast as possible to implement the policy.

“We need more men to police than guard individual Nigerians.

“We can assure Nigerians of a better policing system in no distant time,” Adejobi stated.
