The Lagos State Police Command has
offered a N1m reward to anybody with useful information that will lead to the
arrest of a masked lady who alleged that a policeman, Inspector Christopher
Nabugwu, was living in opulence.
The masked woman had, in a video that
went viral on social media, alleged that the police officer was worth over N2bn
in cash and assets, adding that he owned a building on 27 Remi Fani-Kayode
Street, GRA, Ikeja, worth N250m, and used exotic cars.
According to a statement on Sunday by
the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, CSP Chike Oti, the allegations
caught the attention of the Inspector-General of Police, who ordered an
investigation into the allegation.
CSP Oti said, “Investigation into the
matter was painstakingly carried out. At the end of the probe, it was clear
that the allegations were not only false and misleading, but a calculated
attempt to malign the name of a hard-working police officer and embarrass the
police authorities.”
He said the Commissioner of Police,
Edgal Imohimi, would count on the goodwill of Lagosians and Nigerians to get
information that would lead to the arrest of the masked lady.
