Yesterday at about 1550hrs, a bank cashier noticed that a 64-year old customer was fidgety, receiving repeated calls and was in a hurry to withdraw N600,000. The cashier asked what the problem was and the woman said she would die if she talked.

I finally carried out my social experiment. I drove around Ikeja at about 11:50pm, in mufti, in a private car. I passed through two police points. I spent five seconds at the first without a word from the police officer. He simply waved me on. 1/6
Lekki-Ajah expressway users, was there any traffic robbery yesterday and today? We need to assess our strategies and review them if need be. This is what we signed up for. We must deliver!
I am shocked to learn that a few doctors still request police report before treating gunshot victims. Kindly provide immediate medical attention as stipulated by medical ethics. Then notify the police accordingly. One of our core mandates remain: protection of life.🤝
My heart goes out to the dependents, families and friends of all police officers whose lives were cut short during the 2020

RE: CROWD DISPERSAL AT LEKKI TOLL GATE
The Lagos State Police Command is fully aware of false narratives making the rounds in relation to the dispersal of crowds at the Lekki Toll Gate yesterday, September 21, 2023.
It is instructive to note that the Lagos State Police Command…

Everytime I pass by Sabo, Yaba, I can't help but notice this Police woman who would always make corrections on students who aren't neatly and properly dressed. Many times she goes as far as dressing them up as seen in these pictures.
A few days back at about 11:30pm, two German shepherds strayed into the street and mauled a 36 year old man. He later died in hospital. Case is ongoing. Leash your dogs! You are liable for any damage caused by your pets.
Yesterday, an elderly man came to my office and complained bitterly of how a police officer extorted him of N50,000 before he could take his son on bail. After I summoned the police officer to my office, the elderly man narrated the same story in his presence.
It’s just that you people can abuse somebody too much on this app.
I would have gathered my office people and start, ‘I’m not the PRO. I’m just the PRO’s xyz.’
Then I will come out like a bad boy and say, ‘Yo yo, I am the PRO.’ 😂😂
Thinking about the censuring that would…
‘He bashed my car so I seized his bike till he repairs my car.’ ‘I won’t release her phone till she repays the money I lent her.’ See, in addition to your loss, you will be arrested and prosecuted. That seizure is illegal and criminal. If in doubt, ask a lawyer 🤷♂️.
Officers of Ojo Division today arrested the duo of Imo Lawrence ‘m’ aged 35 and Magnus Nwonka ‘m’ aged 42 in possession of fake drinks.

To AVOID FIRE OUTBREAKS, kindly engage a qualified…

Oro worshippers clashed with church members holding a vigil. It sadly resulted in the death of one person. It’s clearly a murder case. Suspects have been arrested. But henceforth, how do we ensure religious tolerance in similar cases?
I’m not trying to be alarmist. But from the Daily Situation Reports I peruse, I can confirm that the rate of suicide calls for concern☹️. Pay attention to the mental health of the person next to you as well as yours. Depression is real. Agencies & NGOs with mandates bordering…

Be wary about privately meeting people you barely know. A lady travelled down to Lagos to meet up with someone she only met online. In the hotel room, the man made for the toilet, slumped and died. Lady is begging not to let her parents know. Homicide case? Be careful, folks.
Yesterday, at Igando, two men allegedly robbed a POS attendant. A mob descended on them and set them ablaze; burnt beyond recognition. Police arrived but the mob had fled. Investigation has commenced. Again, how do we put a stop to this archaic and criminal practice?
Good news!

I cannot wait for the time when CCTV cameras would be a constant in all buildings, strategic locations and highways. This would help a lot in playing back incidents just like CCTV footages were obtained from nearby buildings during the George Floyd case. 1/2
Fake news! Why give ethnic colouration to crime? Crime is crime. A criminal is a criminal. It would shock you to realize that the mastermind of the lynching is not even a motorcycle owner/rider and guess what, he’s a southerner. My point is, ‘dead’ the stereotypes.
