BREAKING: IGP Sacks 3 Police Officers Who Raided Edwin Clark’s Residence

Police officers who raided the residence of elder stateman, Chief Edwin Clark in Abuja have been sacked.
Three policemen who raided elder statesman, Cheif Edwin Clark’s Asokoro, Abuja residence on Tuesday have been dismissed from the Nigeria Police force.

The Force spokesman, Jimoh Moshood in a statement explained that the Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, approved the dismissal of Insprs. Godwin Musa, Sada Abubakar and Yabo Paul from the service “for the unauthorised, illegal and unprofessional misconduct in the search of the residence of Chief Edwin Clark in Asokoro, Abuja.”

He added that ASP David Dominic who led the operation had been queried and was being investigated for discreditable conduct, negligence of duty and act unbecoming of a police officer.

Moshood hinted that the ASP too may be dismissed.

But Chief Clark’s lawyer, Dr. Kayode Ajulo is insisting on a thorough investigation of the incident, stressing that the policemen could not have carried out the search of his client’s house without authorisation.

He warned that the policemen should not be made the scapegoat in the saga, noting that only a thorough probe would satisfy his client.

Details later.
