Two officers of the Lagos state task force were dismissed for theft during a raid. The dismissal came after a thorough investigation by the agency's disciplinary committee.
The Lagos state task force says it has dismissed two of its personnel for alleged theft during a raid.
Abdulraheem Gbadeyan, the task force spokesperson, identified the two dismissed officers as Fatai Yusuf and Hammed Garuba .He said the integrity of the raid was compromised by the actions of the two officials whose misconduct was captured on closed circuit television .“Both individuals, serving as paramilitary officers within the agency, were subjected to a meticulous investigation by the agency’s disciplinary committee,” he said.
“Upon confirmation of their guilt, they were summarily dismissed from service and will face immediate prosecution for theft.” Gbadeyan said Adetayo Akerele, chairman of the agency, denounced the actions of the dismissed officers and reaffirmed the agency’s commitment to integrity and accountability.“Akerele has issued a stern admonition to all personnel, emphasising that any breach of ethical conduct would attract severe consequences,” he said.
