Police refutes allegations of corruption, ill-funding to its divisions
The Nigeria Police Force has debunked reports of ill-funding and meagre allocation to its divisions, pointing out that the reports are false and misleading.
A statement by the Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, on Friday, maintained that Divisional Police Officers receive statutory funding based on established allocations from the Federal allocation coupled with support from their respective State Governments.
“Contrary to the published report that Divisional Headquarters receive no budgetary allocation and that officers rely solely on unofficial sources of funds for operations, including bail payments, the Police Authority maintains that Divisional Police Officers receive statutory funding based on established allocations from the Federal allocation coupled with support from their respective State Governments.
“Any contrary assertion as contained in the publication is not only false but a calculated attempt to run down the system and discredit the police authority” the statement read.
The PRO, however, acknowledged that inadequate funding has long been a challenge for the police but stated that the funding situation, in recent times, has improved.
Adejobi also disclosed that the Inspector General of Police has ordered an immediate investigation to identify those responsible for the misinformation.
“Subsequent upon the highly misleading and scandalous publication, the Inspector General of Police has ordered an immediate investigation to identify those responsible for this deliberate misinformation”.
