Excerpt
What are the measures being put in place to make the police more citizen friendly?
We have many measures being put in place to restore the lost confidence and trust back to the minds of Nigerians. We have the Police Corporate Relations Committee (PCRC) where members of the public are allowed to join this committee and work directly with the police. These people are not placed on any salary; they do this just to support the police. Aside that, we have the Nigerian Police Eminent Persons Forum where eminent individuals come together and discuss with the police to help the police in all areas. We have the Police Campaign Against Cultism and other Social Vices (POCACOS), an initiative of (a former) Inspector-General of Police (IGP) where these bodies go round to educate the youths, especially on the need to shun cultism and other social vices. The Nigerian Police Sports Department Secretariat organises many tournaments to assist in bringing members of the public together to interact with the police. The police have many facilities that are open to members of the public for use. Most of our facilities like Police College, Ikeja, Kaduna and Maiduguri. Most members of the public go there for sport activities or for training exercises. This always brings members of the public close to the police. There are times we have trainings that we do for paramilitary and security agencies like Man O’ War, Scout, etc. This makes people get close to the police as many have wrong perception about the police and may actually see police as spirits. They never saw police as human beings like them. So they come close and relate with the police. The Mess offices generally: we have Non-Commissioned Officers Mess, Inspectorate Mess, and Officers Mess where people can come and relax. These are places where members of the public or friends to police officers can come in, eat, drink together, unwind, etc. People are now getting close to the police. They are being incorporated into security systems in our various communities.
Aside all these, Commissioner of Police (CP) from various commands, particularly in Lagos State, do Town Hall meeting where people sit down for hours. The last one we did in Ikorodu lasted more than six hours. That day we know that we actually listened to people in the community. There’s no need for us to be in haste or rushing. We know this day is dedicated for people in this division of Lagos State in Ikorodu. We had a communiqué, people pour out their minds; we need the police in these areas, we don’t need the police here, etc. Where they don’t need the police, they told us they don’t need the police for some reasons and we reason with them, and we did what actually they wanted us to do. And we did what we think is right for us to do.
Generally, the Public Relations Office organises many events, lots of social events, academic events where we relate with people. The National Youths Council of Nigeria (NYCN) is relating with the police. This is what we call ‘catch them young’: the PR department will always go out to primary and secondary schools. NYCN is the umbrella body for youth organisations where you meet boys’ brigade, Man O’ War, Girls Guide, Ansar-Ud-Deen, Nasrul-Lahi-I-Fatih Society groups, irrespective of their religions and talk to them and relate with them. People generally say oh, we can actually relate with the police. And don’t forget: Do you know we have the Nigerian Police Radio? The radio station is on and the television is in the pipeline. Very soon, we will be out. There are so many things on ground to make sure that police is taken to the grassroots and people are involved in the policing systems in the country, particularly in Lagos State.
As the man managing police image and publics’ perception, are you satisfied with the current terms of recruitment, given the issue of involvement in crime, indiscipline, etc?
As a person, I’m not so pleased with the recruitment exercise in the police. That’s why you see that most of the previous IGPs have been fighting hard to have full control; to be in charge of recruitment exercises into the Nigeria Police Force (NPF), either as recruit constables, cadet inspectors, cadet ASPs or full Police Academy training as pure cadets. We believe that most of the problems that are being faced in the police now are connected to enormous recruitment processes that those ordinarily not supposed to be in the job have found their ways into the job. Break the head; put everything inside that brain, it’s still empty, and he cannot comprehend. At this level, I don’t think I should say a policeman shouldn’t be able to read well and write well. It is not good enough to be having police personnel that cannot read and write.
I know I was in the training school; I was in Police College, Ikeja, as a directing staff. I did screening for some of them that were recruited in 2017/2018. I was part of the team, then the Deputy Inspector of Police (DIG) South-west then, Oshodi Glover, came around and they were to doing screening for them. I was the one in charge and I asked a recruit to read a portion of any newspaper; he wasn’t able to read. My heart will be bleeding! How do you want this one to cope when he gets to the field? Here’s an issue of having good security. Criminal justice system starts from having good records from the Charge Room (counter). When you meet somebody who does not know how to read and write as a Charge Room Officer, and you are narrating a story of armed robbery; if he doesn’t comprehend, he will give you a story of stealing. With that only, you have killed justice; there’s no how you want to do it. I actually think we can do more on the issue of recruitment.
Being the PRO many years back, 2008-2016 in Ogun State; before the establishment of the Department of Training and Development, the PRO department was actually saddled with the responsibility of recruitment. As a recruitment officer, I fought tooth and nail to make sure I had credible hands to be in the force. In fact, to the extent some politicians started writing petitions against me; and I will go to Abuja to defend. Inasmuch as I’m not collecting money from anybody, am standing firm to make sure of that. I love this job; I didn’t join the police by mistake. It’s not that I’m actually desperate to get a job and had opportunity of joining the police. It’s what my father said, go into the police. I love the police, my father also love the police. I love the police and we are five in the police from the same family. It’s not by accident I joined the police. I actually wanted to be in the police and my father wanted me to be in the police.
I am in the police so I will not fold my arms seeing the standard going down; ethics of the job, code of conduct of the job being eroded. It’s not a good thing for me as a person. I think we can do more. The IGP will work well with the leadership of the Police Service Commission (PSC) to see what we can do about the recruitment in the NPF. We need more hands, we don’t have much manpower, we need manpower and if we want manpower, we need to recruit massively and this process must not desist from the fact that the standard of recruitment must still be maintained. The fact that we want men to work with us doesn’t mean we just continue to recruits every Dick and Harry into the service without considering any standard, we can do more.
On the issue of bad eggs in the Force, what is the police authority doing to flush them out if detected?
We have many of them in the job. We have good ones and they are very excellent. I give kudos to them, I doff my hat. Marcus Garvey says the only thing history teaches a man is that man fails to learn from history itself. We have some of our men that don’t learn from the past. If you don’t understudy your past, you won’t know your present and you cannot plan for your future. The principle of Uniformitarianism – study the past to be able to conform to the present situation. For instance, the issue of #EndSARS, I wouldn’t expect any policeman to still be going and be searching mobile phones on the road, using Point-of-sale (POS) machine. Yet, we still arrest many of them, which means they haven’t learnt, they are so recalcitrant, they are very stubborn, unrepentantly stubborn. I don’t always like people to be dismissed except you commit capital offences like pure armed robbery or killing. If it’s those minor offences of extortions etc, if I have my way, I’d love to advice the President that let’s be seconding them to ministries and parastatals and government agencies. Instead of dismissing a policeman of these minor offences, let’s take that man: collect his gun, uniform and second him to Ministry of Agriculture. Go and put them in farm settlements let them continue to farm, manage poultry, piggery or fishery farms and plantation of teak, fine teak, special specie like tectona grandis teak, etc. We will use them to boost the economy again, instead of dismissing.
They can do screening of these bad eggs and use them for other needs: take them out of security circle. Don’t let them access this authority; being in police, they are having a lot of power, having a lot of opportunities to deal with people in the community. If they are not in that police circle, take them to Ministry of Mines and Power or Ministry of Water Resources let them continue to be in charge of these, instead of dismissing them. Their salary will still go and will be part of Federal Government staff as civil servants, but they will not be police officers again and they will not be armed. Inasmuch as they are in the service, they can have the circumstance that will make them to go and sign for arms. Once you have arms with you, you can do and undo.
We need to do more; officers are always urged not to overlook their misdeed. If am going out and I see a policeman who’s not properly dressed, I will stop and correct him. My CP doesn’t tolerate it as well; if he’s going and sees something that’s not good, he parks and corrects it. Let other officers like us and heads of departments continue to talk to them. I cannot see anybody under me got drunk on duty. Who born am, how you want do am? I always feel sad when I see some officers/personnel drunk, dirty. I say it’s the Divisional Police Officer’s fault. I can’t send my men out without mustering them. I will muster them before I send them out. I will ask them to fall in at a particular time. If I’m to deploy them by 6pm, I will ask them to fall in by 4:30 pm. By 5:00 pm I must have checked all of them. Those that are not properly dressed should go and dress well; those that don’t have clean shave should go and shave. They must turn out clean. It’s the responsibility of the HOD or sectional head to muster those men, to check them before you deploy them. Even when you deploy them, there are systems in the police to checkmate their excesses, to monitor them and to supervise them. If I have men at a particular place; take Maryland for instance, if I post them at Maryland do I have anyone who’s going there to checkmate them? If not, that I believe I have 7 men at Maryland and all of them are asleep. What’s the essence of having 7 men at Maryland when they are all asleep? It’s dangerous to my system, arms as they can be attacked and all the arms carted away, they will lose their lives, I will lose my riffles and still have a bad name. It will come in the news that armed men killed 7 police personnel, carted away riffles. It’s negative to me. When I have men deployed to a certain place, I should have the system and mechanism there to check them, not be telling me affirmatively that oga we are here. Are you actually sure they are even there? You post them around 7:00 pm by 9-10:00 pm all of them have gone. When you call them on radio, they will say affirmatively, oga, I’m here, I’m checking, I’m doing everything; area cool and calm. Is area cool and calm or are they actually there at that spot to do what they should do? We have many bad eggs in the police and I think it’s high time we start thinking outside the box, to see how we can address the problem of having bad eggs in the police. If you don’t have good police system, you cannot have good governance. Police is so connected to governance and our democratic values; so much that we cannot afford to toy with having standard policing system in the country.
What is your attitude to the persistent calls for state police in the country?
It’s not an issue that we can just sit down here and talk. I have to take a plate of pounded yam with edikai-ikong soup. It goes beyond the issue of just opening ones mouth and be discussing state policing. It’s a constitutional thing; the Constitution section 214 establishes the NPF. There shall be… when you hear the ‘shall’, it means it’s not negotiable, but if at all you want to negotiate it, let’s review the constitution. Whatever it is, the people that are doing this, I think have seen and are exposed enough, matured enough to think right and take the right decision to assist the county. I wouldn’t say it’s good or bad, but whatever that’s constitutional, is not just for me to sit and talk as if I have the power to change it tomorrow. No, let the Constitution decide what comes out of it. If its state policing fine, if it’s federal policing fine, if it’s the two together fine; all well and good.
Recent death of Barrister Mrs. Ikpeama is one too many of wife battering. Is there no law against domestic violence?
There are so many laws from the provisions of the criminal laws of Nigeria which, of course, is applicable in Lagos State; Criminal laws of Lagos 2015 against domestic violence. Talk of assault, rape, indecent assault etc. Do you know there is what is called Indecent Assault? Many don’t even know indecent assault. We have indecent assault on male and on female. For instance, if you as a woman look at me and say Muyiwa I like you and you’re touching me and am not comfortable with the way you’re touching me or you’re harassing me and am not comfortable with the way you are harassing me, I have the right to complain against your action but we don’t even know they exist. People don’t know how to go about them than you are touching me, I will report you to mummy, I will do this and that’s all, that ends it.
No, aside that, there is Violence Against Persons (Prohibition) Acts (VAPP) 2015. The law takes care of certain loopholes in the criminal laws. This one considers harassment on the part of housemaid, helps, etc. This particular VAPP has been domesticated in all states. I know some states that are making use of these VAPP Acts; it’s a very good law. There are so many laws on ground. Lagos State has its own laws: Child Rights Law (CRL) 2017. Most of the state has given rights to children. Talk of defilement on an infant, underage that’s been harassed by father. We have case of father doing that to their daughters, step-fathers, uncles, etc. We have many cases on ground at our office at the state Criminal Investigation Department (CID) Panti, many cases we are handling and charged to court. I always do press statement in some of these cases either sexually abused people or husbands beating up their wives or wives beating up their husbands. That’s the cases we have. There are many laws on ground against domestic violence and we enforce these laws appropriately. Many are in court and many are charged to court.
There are some cases that are very difficult to prosecute in Nigeria for want of evidence, because we allow our cultural values to override our legal framework. The family of the wife at time and that of the husband will bring in sentiments that you want to send the father of your children to prison, ha! You’re a bastard; I’ve not done it to my husband, etc. Sentiments will now come, even for the woman to come and testify, she will run away; by the time you don’t appear in court 1, 2, 3, 4 times, the judge will strike out the case for want of evidence. Most cases we don’t find it easy persecuting. Even in rape cases, the victims don’t want to come forward because of social stigma and the likes and, of course, sentiment again. All these sentiments kill justice. That’s why the people still come out and perpetuate these acts with impunity. We have laws on ground and we are enforcing the law and will continue to enforce the law.
On April 14, a Ghanaian Actress was charged for posting nude with her son: Can same happen in Nigeria?
It’s possible. If we have issues like that, there are so many laws we can apply. In doing that, if we have such a thing in Nigeria too you can charge such a person to court. It’s not only in Ghana; there are some of our laws that are considered morality too. Let’s maintain our moral values though you must not do this and that. There’s no how somebody in Nigeria will be bold enough to post nude pictures like that. We have the rights to arrest that person, like Baba Fela will talk, when it get to that time we go open books for ourselves and begin to apply law.
A Nigerian Police officer was refused refuge in Canada (police brutality, torture, extra-judicial killing, etc cited). What’s your take on that?
I don’t know the facts. I read it the way you read it; I don’t know whether it’s actually true. If I’ve seen it in black and white documents on this, I will be able to hold on to it and refer to it. But anything on social media I don’t have belief on it. I don’t want to base my discussion or assertion on such piece of write-up that has not been so substantiated. If I have a book with me now, I’ve read that the guy was actually denied resident visa or permanent visa because his alleged involvement in so, so activities. I’m not saying it’s not true, but same time I can’t say it’s true and now make it a point of reference for this discussion. No, it’s not so but I know that whatever you do, the evil men do live after them; that was then, but now they say it live beside them or on their laps. The fact is whatever you do; international community will be watching you. That is why we say try your best to do good so that you will not give Nigeria bad image outside there.
When you travel out, in most cases, you will see the way they separate Nigerians from other tourists, you will feel sad. I was travelling from Atlanta to California with my wife, we are the only two blacks and the guy just came and asked for our passports. We gave him and funny enough my wife is an officer. He went with the passports, we’ve boarded already just to close the cabin and fly. Before he came, they have used pen to mark the passports. He returned the passports said we should enjoy the trip and left. I wouldn’t know what he has gone to do but just because we are the only blacks, others are whites. It’s part of it, maybe he felt Nigerians have come again. When they see blacks the first thing that comes to their mind is Nigerians. When you tell them from Africa, they will say, Nigeria? They don’t want to know any other country again but Nigeria. It’s always good for us to redeem our image and the aspect of drug trafficking and the likes, fraud, cyber-crime (Yahoo-yahoo), etc, are denting our image. That’s why the government is working hard to see that we try our best to make sure we reduce it to the barest minimum. The establishment of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) are working with the international community to see that Nigerian government is not in support of this crime. When you commit these crimes, they pick you and you go for it. I think the government is trying hard, all of us are trying hard and we can still do more.
There were some high profile kidnappings in Lagos late last year and early this year and I am amazed that despite the technological innovations, the police seem to be finding it difficult to track the criminals and arrest them.
No, not in Lagos state, it’s in Ogun State. Emorin is in Ogun State, the two cases of the farmers and the likes fell under Ogun State, though we assisted, because it’s a border thing; but it’s more of Ogun than in Lagos. That’s why we arrested some bad boys in that area that were charged to court recently with the new anti-cultism law in Lagos that we paraded in Yaba Magistrate Court 1. All of them were actually arrested in that axis; Lagos State has not recorded any case of kidnapping.
Why is kidnapping not recorded in Lagos State?
I guess kidnappers are afraid. If the big boys in kidnapping business could be arrested, who are they that will not be arrested? I think they are afraid of coming to Lagos because they know we have the wherewithal. Are you talking of the vast knowledge of the CP on demographic and geographic nature of the state? Are you talking of the measures on ground, facilities/equipment, logistics, Rapid Response Squad (RRS) coupled with Taskforce, area surveillance? Everything is working well; we know it’s not going to be so easy for them. We are sure that with the strategies we have on ground, I can boldly say I’m optimistic that we won’t record any case of kidnapping in Lagos State. But I’ve warned them, they shouldn’t go to my state, Osun. If they pursue them in Lagos State, they shouldn’t go to Osun, because it’s my state and I don’t wish my state bad.
Managing the image of policemen within Lagos State is a Herculean task, considering some observable loopholes….
It’s very, very difficult because of the size and population. The number of challenges you’re expected to manage will be directly proportional to the population of the state. Challenges are so enormous. Are you talking of managing the large number of the media, journalists alone, talk of the print, electronic and online, bloggers etc. The bloggers are funny because those ones don’t even care; no serious credibility because they believe they can do a story without confirmation. But you have to manage all. I belong to more than 180 WhatsApp groups. Everybody just continue to add you to their online group. I won’t say no because if I say no, the guy will say I like somebody more than him. You have to relate with everybody.
Considering the size of the population, there’s no how you will not be having any challenges. Yes, and today, I manage two cases of policemen being alleged of using POS to collect money from people. Today, I’d actually recovered one, recover the money. They use POS to collect money from a guy, we identify those policemen, they confessed and they will be charged. The matter is on at Area E, Festac. The Area Commander is a no-nonsense man, the new DPO that just went there, CSP Femi Olorundun Iwasokun is a no-nonsense man. They looked for them, searched for them and got them and have recovered the money and the money is given back to the complainant, a young Nigerian, very happy, he has twitted it.
What of assaults, beating somebody, using sticks. I’ve been going round; at times, when I go out, you will see my vehicle with lots of sticks and horse whips I’ve ceased from our men on the road. All these things batter the image of the force. I think it’s giving us, PR Department a lot of job to do. We’ve been on our toes and will continue to do so. To manage the image of the force in Lagos is not easy at all. I think Lagos has the largest number of police personnel, running to hundreds of thousands. To monitor them too is not going to be easy. I went out yesterday to some divisions at night, most of them are not on duty. The DPO had the belief that they are actually on duty. That’s why the CP said some senior officers: at your own time, go round for affirmations. If I’m going to Victoria Island, I don’t just drive and go to V.I; all the police divisions along the road, I will stop by to check one or two things. There’s no how you will get to a police station you that will not check or correct one or two things anytime you get there, you must correct one or two things, for you to know how terrible it is. Are you talking of the media houses that everybody wants to talk to you. I have the line-up of programmes like 10-15 people will queue that they want to talk to you; they want to hear from the police. Managing the image of the police in Lagos is not that easy, but thank God my CP understands PR, he has diploma in PR and he has certificate in Journalism. When I have issues and I share it with him, he provides solutions at times and we work well.
Members of the public have been so fantastic. They get to me all the time. We had an agreement: When you call me and I miss your call, call the Control Room. We have four control rooms, very strong and our controllers who manage machines are very vast, brilliant and the CP has given them authority that if a constable is talking, he speaks like the commissioner. A constable in control room will not be calling AC and AC will say, see the way he’s talking to me. They have been given that power to speak on behalf of the CP. When issues arise, people complain to us, we manage and we’ve been getting on fine. The image is not that bad again and we think we can still do more.
To have a better image for the police is not the job of Muyiwa Adejobi, the PPRO alone. Members of the public must assist. If a policeman slaps you and you’ve not reported it to us, you have not helped the system, because each incident is recorded. Every week we do statistics analysis: If in Onipanu somebody slaps you and it’s not on record and at the end of the week I have one case of assault I will think its negligence. If all cases are reported and in Onipanu alone I have cases of 10 persons being assaulted by the police, it’s alarming, I will raise alarm, which means something is wrong in that place. But if you’ve not reported to me, you are affecting my judgment and evaluation of my statistics, appraisal of my system and I won’t be able to have right judgment about incidences in specific areas of the state. People should come in to assist us, to help us. We have various platforms through which they can get across to us – Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, direct calls, etc. They should always get to us so that we can add more pep in fighting against the bad image of the police and redeeming the image as well.
How have you been able to meet up with demands of your Assignment as PPRO and expectations of Crime Reporters?
I’ve been relating with them and they know the system; that I don’t beg the journalists not to write, but be objective in whatever you want to write. If a police man rapes a girl, I will be a fool begging you not to publish, its immaterial to me; so far you know his name and you’re not saying it’s the CP. No misrepresentation: if Sergeant Akeem rapes a girl don’t say it’s Muyiwa. If a police man misbehaves, don’t generalise it that Lagos State Police Command is condemned, no. In the case of Jelili Bakare that was shot in Sangotedo. Jonathan Company, former inspector attached to (his station) fired somebody. But don’t say police has come again or Lagos Police massacre or Bloody Sunday: Lagos Police kill. Don’t say Lagos Police kill, rather Sergeant this kills. Don’t generalise, that’s where I have issues with some people. If Muyiwa has done something, say Muyiwa, don’t say Police. Everybody has his own name and your name is your anchor, use the person’s name. I appreciate them (the media) because I’ve not had bad cases like this one I’ve just cited now. Everything has been going on well, reportage has been so fantastic.
On a lighter mood; most of those big boys in the media in Lagos now, we co-existed when I was the PRO in Ogun State. Most of them know me and we relate well. When I was out of PR for some time, I still maintained the friendship and understanding. We’ve been having series of meetings, lectures, etc, it’s been good and it’s going to be better, because we are going to be having certain things like workshop and seminars that we want to do for various sectors, including the crime reporters, Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) as a body. We had a meeting with NUJ executives recently, and many things will still come. The aspect of having social events together must come in; it’s what I called Police Press Dinner. I used to do it sometime ago. That time, you are not carrying any midget, camera or pen. You are just coming with extra spoons if you have, put them in your pocket to enjoy, catch fun and then talk. When you have dinner and cocktail and discuss some issues they are more important than issues you do in round table conferences. These are things we want to have and we can still improve the synergy between the police and the media in Lagos State and it’s achievable.
How do you unwind despite your very busy schedule?
My belief is I need to serve God, serve mankind, enjoy my life and cruise as if there’s no tomorrow. I go to club, a socialite; I can dance, sing and do everything moderately, anyway. I have time for my family because that one is first. My wife is an officer with the police; I have four kids – two boys and two girls. I relate with them, if there’s no time for me to see them I can bring them to come see me in a very nice place I stay in Lagos. I play tennis, that’s very crucial. When I close from work, I go and play tennis from 8-10pm. After tennis, then I will be fine. When you play tennis, your brain will work well then I will drive round to do police work again. While clubbing I do police work; there’s no time I go to club whether on the Island or Mainland, I will still park and make entries that I met two instead of three, etc. While doing police work, I catch my fun. I serve God, I know there’s God, I go to church, I’m an Anglican, I’m a member of the Boys Brigade, I play trumpet, I beat drums, I sing, etc. There’s nothing I cannot do. I believe in prayers, I’m not a fanatic, I don’t believe in worshipping somebody. If I don’t have time to go to church, I can do my fasting and prayers; I can turn a section of my office to a synagogue or a holy temple and continue to pray. I don’t kick against any religion, I believe in all. Most of my friends are Muslim brothers and sisters. And if I see traditionalists, I’m a priest, I cannot go against them. I relate with everybody and believe all is well but I’m a Christian officially and I go to church. That’s my life, I respect people, I love everybody around me and I love seeing people around me; I fear nobody but I respect all.
What’s your advice to Lagosians?
I want Lagosians to cherish this enviable state we have. Lagos is a blessed State. It’s a blessing to them in Lagos to have all this resources – human, natural and material. We want all of them to be very vigilant, they should not allow some people to come and destroy this heritage we have, destroy the security architecture or jeopardise the security networking we have in Lagos State. Lagos State is good, it’s going to be better and we can have the best from it if all of us come together as a family. Those who stay in Lagos, you know Lagos is a megacity, Igbo, Hausa; all of them are part of the government in Lagos State. It’s a nation on its own and we need to cherish it, come together to uphold the certainty of togetherness, the esprit de corps we have in Lagos State. Lagosians must work with us (Police), work with the government and have belief in themselves that Lagos State is good. It will be better and have the best from it, depending on our belief and ability.
