    …IGP Tasks Investigation to Unravel, Sanction Mischief Makers

    The Nigeria Police Force has addressed the recent circulation of a video on social media, where motorists at a traffic stop point were being harassed and robbed by armed individuals, purporting to depict an incident that occurred in Abuja, Nigeria.

    ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the Force Public Relations Officer (FPRO) at the Force Headquarters Abuja revealed this in a statement signed on Friday.

    The statement reads:

    “After conducting a thorough digital forensics analysis, the NPF-National Cyber Crime Centre (NPF-NCCC) has determined that the incident actually took place in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

    “The video was originally posted by an individual from South Africa on the 22nd of April 2024 on X social media platform, with the caption suggesting that it is dangerous to travel in Ethiopia without a handgun.

    “It was reposted by some mischief makers who alleged that the incident happened in Abuja in order to disinform the public, and thereby caused grave panic amongst residents in the Federal Capital Territory, and its environs; and sent a wrong signal across the country which is counterproductive to our national safety and integrity.

    “In response to this disinformation, the Inspector General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, has ordered a comprehensive investigation to identify the individual or group responsible for falsely claiming that the incident took place in Nigeria.

    “Once identified, appropriate legal actions will be taken to sanction those involved.

    “The Inspector General of Police hereby re-emphasizes the importance of accurate information dissemination and urges the public to exercise caution and verify the authenticity of videos and news circulating on social media platforms as all forms of misleading contents can cause unnecessary fear and panic among the populace.

    “He also reiterated that the Police remains steadfast in combating all forms of misinformation and disinformation in its quest to ensuring public safety and security.”
