The statement added: “Since then, the Nigeria Police Force has experienced various leadership changes, resulting in considerable advancements and development in all areas”.

The Police raised the concern that: “The recirculation of the video seems to be a deliberate act to create a wrong impression of the police system and, most likely, the handiwork of mischief makers to malign the police authority”.

“The Inspector-General of Police, IGP, Dr Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, has reaffirmed the dedication of the Force to the excellent training of police recruits and the welfare of personnel in general,” the statement read.
