Frank Mba, the spokesman of the Nigeria Police, has warned Nigerians to desist from daring or challenging armed security personnel as it “is a recipe for disaster.” Nigeria Nigerians NigeriaPolice NigerianPOlice Police
“Don’t dare or challenge an armed security man to a duel. Oftentimes, you hear people say things like ‘shoot me, if you can!” Note that this is a recipe for disaster!,” Frank Mba said in his debut post for “Improving police-citizens relationship: tips for safe and cordial interactions” series.Between March and April 2019, about nine persons died in different parts of Nigeria as a result of misuse of firearms by police personnel.
However, Mba, the spokesman for the police suggested that these disasters are related to the conduct and utterances of citizens when interacting with police officers.“Avoid unnecessary argument with armed security personnel. There are a thousand and one ways to seek redress where you feel your rights have been infringed upon.”
