SWAT Operative Checking Man’s Phone

In a video circulating on social media, the security operative was seen checking the man’s phone in his vehicle despite warnings from the Inspector-General of Police that it is “unlawful” to do so.

Sharing the video on his Twitter page, Peter wrote: ”New SWAT stopped us and started searching our phones. Thought this was meant to be over.”

Reacting to the outrage trailing the video, Police spokesman, CSP Prince Olumuyiwa Adejobi said he has reported the erring officer to the appropriate authorities for punishment.

Adejobi tweeted: “We have taken up this, yet another case. We have informed the CP SWAT, CP Kolo Yusuf and DIG FCID, we hope to fish them out asap.

“Since some of our men are bent on denting the image of the NPF, and deviate from our SOP, we wont mind giving them their “doses” and sanctions.”
