NPF to punish officer for carrying Atiku’s wife’s bag

The Nigeria Police Force(NPF) said a police officer attached to Mrs Titi Abubakar will be punished for carrying her bag.

The officer was seen carrying a handbag while visiting Titi’s office for her husband’s 2023 campaign.

Titi is the wife of former Vice President and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar.

Muyiwa Adejobi, the Force Public Relations Officer, stated that officers are not expected to violate professional ethics.

Adejobi responded to a Twitter user @Fifi_Ify who said the officer was turned into a maid.

“When a private citizen can turn our uniform force member into her maid, why won’t the police forget their primary duty and only dance to the tune of the elites?”, she wrote.

The police spokesperson condemned the act he called “absurdity”, adding that it is not acceptable.

“We have commenced necessary action on this. We will fish her out and get across to the principal.

“The AIG Special Protection Unit has been contacted to assist us get the woman police. Gradually, we will sanitise the system.

“How can an orderly carry a bag for her madam. I am sure the madam will have a PA, and that is the PA’s job”, he added.
