The Police Service Commission has pledged to investigate alleged police misconduct contained in the report of the Action Group on Free Civic Space in Nigeria, which was presented to the commission in Abuja.
The group, led by Ms Zikora Ibe and accompanied by Okechukwu Nwanguma and Kingsley Godwin presented the report titled, ‘ENDSARS: Police brutality, protests and shrinking civic space in Nigeria.’ Speaking while receiving the delegation on behalf of the Chairman of the Commission, Justice Clara Ogunbiyi, retired Justice of the Supreme Court and Commissioner representing the judiciary in the commission said the report was far reaching and that the commission will need to further investigate the serious allegations contained in it.
According to a statement on Monday by the PSC spokesman, Ikechukwu Ani, Ogunbiyi said the report contained a lot of allegations and information which the commission would need to verify. She commended the group for the painstaking job, noting that the commission will continue to do its best to improve the workings of the Nigeria Police Force and would continue to ensure that it operates within defined rules and regulations and with respect to democratic tenets.

Protest as man arrested for murder dies in Lagos police custody - Punch NewspapersThe most widely read newspaper in Nigeria We shouldn't be quick to protest, as nobody knew what transpired there. Maybe he died of a heart attack, some aliment or torture. One can't say until autopsy and proper investigation is carried out. Many Nigerians hardly check their health condition until it becomes bad. Police should be arrested for murder too.
