Police Officers Caught on Video Assaulting Man Condemned by Force PRO

The Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, has publicly condemned the assault of a yet-to-be-identified man by some police officers in a viral video that surfaced on social media. The incident, which occurred in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, shows a police officer repeatedly beating and slapping the man.

Adejobi took to his Twitter account to express his disapproval of the incident, stating that he has directed the Rivers State Command to identify the officers involved and bring them to justice. He described the act as “unpolice, unethical, and condemned.”

The video has sparked outrage and condemnation from members of the public, who are calling for swift action to be taken against the officers involved. Many are expressing concern over the increasing cases of police brutality and abuse of power in Nigeria.

In his tweet, Adejobi also stated that whatever the man may have done, he did not deserve to be beaten in such a manner. He further criticized the officers for their unprofessional behavior, asking if it was appropriate to “beat him like a baby? A grown-up man?”

The Force PRO’s statement has been widely shared on social media, with many commending him for taking swift action to address the issue. However, some are also expressing skepticism over the effectiveness of such statements in curbing police brutality and demanding accountability from law enforcement agencies.

The incident has once again highlighted the need for systemic reforms within the Nigerian police force, with calls for increased training, better oversight, and greater accountability for officers who abuse their power. As the investigation into the incident continues, many are hoping that justice will be served, and that incidents of police brutality will become a thing of the past in Nigeria.
