FPRO advises Nigerians to report policemen who forcefully collect their phones

The Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, has encouraged Nigerians to report any instances where policemen coercively confiscate or scrutinize their mobile phones. 

This statement was conveyed through his social media platform on Tuesday.

He wrote, “Report any policeman who forcefully collects and searches your phones or electronic equipment. It’s not proper, not professional.

“They can only scrutinise your phone when such is subject to an investigation and already marked exhibit, and such is not done on the road.

“So, any policeman who searches the phone on the road is deviant and violates the order of the IGP and negates our SOP. He should be sanctioned.”
