Six police officers have been dismissed in Kwara State for professional misconduct.
The State Commissioner for Police, Kayode Egbetokun, speaking during a stakeholder meeting in Ilorin, the state capital on Thursday, said that the officers were dismissed for various forms of misconduct in four months.
Egbetokun said his command does not condone indiscipline among its officers, adding that many police officers had been served various forms of punishment.
The police boss, while speaking on the #EndSARS protest said, “Please, talk with your men not to copy what’s happening elsewhere in the country, particularly, as it concerned current spate of insecurity in many parts of the country. You can see that it is longer #EndSARS protest again with the level of destruction and looting going on in some places in the country. It looks like a new agenda by the criminal elements.”
“They loot armoury to get gun in order to commit atrocities after this time. We should discourage that and be careful with kind of information we access on social media. Fake reports that can cause disunity and chaos are being circulated. We have to be careful,” he added.
