Controversy has trailed an alleged ‘fake memo’ currently circulating social media with the order for the withdrawal of Mobile Police personnel from very important personalities (VIPs) with, a Mobile Squadron Commander, CP Mike Ademola (rtd) saying there is no such order.
CP Ademola, who is conversant with signals and memos having led the Mobile police before retirement, while reacting to the memo, said it didn’t come from the police authority and therefore, it is fake.
He noted that the wording of the memo shows that it is fake as the police signal does not appear without proper identification and directions.
“From the memo, you would notice that some persons were not properly identified and this is a sign of fake news”, he said.
He also commended the acting IGP, Olukayode Egbetokun for having the courage to initiate policies that would reform the Nigeria Mobile Police and bring back the lost glory.
He said, with an initiative like this, the IGP has set the police ready for a better future.
When contacted for clarification of the purported memo, Force PRO, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi said the Force management team is currently having their meetings now where critical decisions will be taken.
