…… Says matter investigated, concluded 5 years ago.
…… Video maker was officer’s estranged lover – Police.
The Nigeria Police Force has addressed recent allegations recirculating on social media, made by an unidentified masked female individual regarding the lifestyle of one of its officers, Inspector Christopher Marcel Nabugwu (as he then was).
In a statement on Wednesday, 28th February 2024 signed by the Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said that the matter in question was thoroughly investigated five years ago when it first trended, at which time it was conclusively determined that there was no validity to the accusations.
“The allegations, including claims about the officer’s residence and vehicle details, were entirely false and without merit, ACP Adejobi said.
The statement read further, “Additionally, it has been revealed that the individual behind the video is an estranged lover of the said officer suggesting a motive of vengeance or personal vendetta.
“The Nigeria Police Force wishes to emphasize that the insinuation contained in the video is baseless and unfounded, while its recirculation after five (5) years is mischievous and a calculated attempt to malign the integrity of the Nigeria Police Force.
“The NPF remains committed to serving the country with professionalism and dedication, and we trust that this clarification puts an end to any misinformation/disinformation surrounding this matter.
