The Nigeria Police Force has arrested three police Inspectors on an alleged case of armed robbery, abduction, and extortion carried out against one Omoh Oshoke, an Abuja resident.
The Inspectors were identified as Francis Ahuean, Semiu Agbaakin and Osagie Efford, all attached to the FID-STS.
In a statement on Sunday, March 10, the Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said that the arrest was in furtherance of NPF’s zero tolerance for corruption and extortion.
According to him, the trio was being investigated and currently undergoing trial.
ACP Adejobi stated further that the accomplices of the Inspectors, including one Elizabeth Amos Busayo, who is a Point of Sale (POS) operator and one Thomas Michael, who acted as an informant for the offending police officers, had also been arrested and were currently being investigated alongside the police officers.
He added that the Force had assured that justice would be served on the case, while urging other officers to always act and continue to operate within the ambit of the law.
