Lagos CP takes disciplinary action against DPO Okokomaiko over extortion

The Okokomaiko Divisional Police Officer, SP Emmanuel Edebagha, was swiftly disciplined by the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, CP Idowu Owohunwa, for improperly supervising his subordinates.

The action was taken in response to allegations that personnel of the Okokomaiko division had extorted N101,000 from a phone dealer in Lagos under false pretences of being a fraudster.

SP Benjamin Hundeyin, a spokesman for the state police, confirmed the information on his verified Twitter account.

He wrote; “CP Idowu Owohunwa has ordered the immediate removal of DPO Okokomaiko for his lack of supervision of his men. CP Owohunwa has also ordered commencement of disciplinary action against him and all his indicted officers (who are already in the state headquarters)”.
