The Inspector General of Police, IGP, Mohammed Adamu has decried the attack on a Deputy Commissioner of Police, DCP in Brass, Bayelsa State on Sunday and has ordered for the immediate arrest, comprehensive investigation and diligent prosecution of persons involved, no matter their positions in society.
This was contained in a statement by the police on Monday.
The IGP, who described the incident as unwarranted and unprovoked, warned that under his watch, such brazen acts of impunity will not be condoned.
Similarly “Five (5) male suspects have been arrested in Umuahia, Abia State over an attack on a Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) who was patriotically defending the sanctity of the electoral system at a Collation Centre in Umuahia”.
“These attacks have once again highlighted the risks and hazards inherent in policing our clime, and the need for stakeholders and government at all levels to continue to support the officers and men of the Force in the discharge of their responsibilities”.
Meanwhile, “the IGP has commended all Nigerians, whom, by their words and actions have clearly identified with the Force by denouncing these barbaric and uncivilized actions against Police Officers performing their legitimate duties”.
