The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has debunked the circulation of a viral memo claiming that the force has withdrawn police aides from politicians.
In a press release, the NPF addressed the ambiguity surrounding the signal, stating that it is fake and did not originate from the NPF or any of its formations.
The memo in question, purportedly originating from MOPOL 45 FHQ ABJ, ordered the removal of police aides from certain top politicians and their relatives.
However, the NPF clarified that the signal deviates from its telegraphic message structure and standard, as it bears the irregular signature of a Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP), whereas such a signal would typically be signed by an Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) who heads such formations.
Taking immediate notice of the situation, the Acting Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, PhD, NPM, has ordered a thorough investigation into the source of the fake memo.
