In a statement by CSP Jimoh O Moshood, the Force Public Relations Officer,

Force Headquarters,

Abuja, the Police boss assured the public of the force’s renewed determination and commitment to maintain law and order and guarantee the protection of lives and property of all Nigerians throughout the country.

He reminded Nigerians that the Nigeria Police Force was a highly discipline organization with full observation and compliance with professional ethics, decorum, respect for proper behaviour and good manners within the ranks of personnel of the Force.

According to him, the Facebook “comment therefore, is a distraction and absolutely a shadowy imagination of the writer and should be disregarded and discountenance in its entirety.”
