drew public attention to a perennial problem. Who should have police escort? A top police officer was quoted as saying: ”We received a signal from the Force headquarters…that the police detail of music executive, E-Money, be immediately withdrawn and an investigation into the man be launched.

“In February 2012, Mr. Ringim’s successor, Mohammed Abubakar, also issued his own directive, saying it was time to bring professionalism, efficiency and integrity to police operations.”
