The Imo State Police Command has commenced an orderly room trial of three inspectors, one sergeant and three constables alleged to have engaged in unprofessional conduct, ranging from extortion to high-handedness towards members of the public.

In a press statement issued by the command’s spokesperson, Henry Okoye, it was stated that the trial followed the identification of the personnel by complainants, which led to their arrest and subsequent investigation.

He said that orderly room trial proceedings have therefore been initiated against the personnel, whose names were given as Inspector Eyo Udo of the Anti-Vice Unit; Inspector Peter Nweke of the Rapid Response Squad; and Inspector Ita Asuquo of Operation Search and Flush.

Others include Sergeant Chukwuka Ekwueme of the Anti-Vice Unit and the trio of Police Constables Onuwa Samuel, Patchris David and Amos Sunny, all of the Anti-Vice Unit.

“Notably, some of the personnel were captured in a viral video depicting an alleged extortion incident involving operatives attached to a Joint Task Force, JTF operation,  at Seven-and-a-Half Junction, Obowo, including the other sister agencies whose personnel have been handed over to their various agencies for disciplinary action.

“The Commissioner of Police, CP Aboki Danjuma assures members of the public that the disciplinary process will be thorough, transparent, and in accordance with the Nigeria Police Force regulations and the outcome of the trial will be made public.”

Okoye urged members of the public to continue to report acts of misconduct by police personnel via the Command’s Complaints Response Unit, CRU, on 08148024755, 08068923224 and 08134783532.

Former Governor of Anambra State, Senator Chris Ngige, stormed the All Progressives Congress (APC) Caucus meeting, barely hours after he left the Kuje prison.

Senator Ngige, who was the immediate past Minister of Labour and Employment, was recently remanded in Kuje prison following corruption allegations against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

The former governor was granted bail earlier on Thursday, and he was able to fulfil the bail conditions.

Ngige arrived at the State House Conference Centre after the president had arrived, and he was stopped by security for a while before he was finally cleared to join others.

His arrival attracted cheers from some presidential aides.

Ghana Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP), Dennis Fiakpui, has stated that denying a partner s3x can lead to emotional abuse charges under Ghana’s Domestic Violence Act 732 of 2007.

Speaking to the Ghana News Agency (GNA), the Oti Regional Deputy Commander, revealed that women who refuse their husbands s3x could be charged for emotional abuse and when found guilty, jailed to a maximum of two years’ imprisonment.

He said the law is also applicable to men who may deny their wives s3x, encouraging such emotionally abused women to also lodge complaints with the police.

“If your husbands refuse to eat your food and make you unhappy and cause you emotional pain, you can also report it to the police and if your husbands come home late and cause you to be unhappy, you can make a case at DOVSSU,” he said.

ACP Fiakpui added that women who refused to give s3x to their husbands should equally be reported.
