Today, the Peace Corps of Nigeria (PCN) won its N2bn Human Rights Suit instituted against the Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, the Nigerian Police Force and 4 others.

The presiding Judge, Hon. Justice Gabriel Kolawole also gave a 7-day ultimatum that the National Headquarters of the Corps located at No 57 Iya Abubakar Crescent, off Alex Ekwueme way, opposite Jabi Lake, Jabi, Abuja, be unsealed.

The National Commandant of Peace Corps of Nigeria, Amb ( Dr. ) Dickson Akoh and 49 other officers of the Corps who were arrested on February 28th, 2017, had approached the court, through their Lawyer, Chief Kanu Agabi ( SAN ), seeking redress over their unlawful arrest, detention and brutality.

    To have sustained a well detailed and functional organisation for about 20years while some people who seat back in their government sponsored offices try to bring an end to that is absurd – a display of jealousy due to overwhelming success of the PCN. Well done the amiable commandant and the team.

    THE NIGERIA POLICE WILL NOT OBEY THE COURTS
    During the colonia era and the few years immediately after the colonial era, The Nigeria Police was a law abiding and disseminating agency. But since after the nation’s civil war the NPF had become the most NOTORIOUS & CORRUPT organisation in the world. Hence the reason the government began to devolve her responsibilities to other sister agencies, because the Force cannot be redeemed nor helped.

    With the passing years it has DEGENERATED so bad to the attention of the whole world and the UN.

    You see them on the road openly collecting bribes; which at the end of the shift is passed on to thesenior officers.

    Then on weekdays they go round Mechanic workshops and carpenter workshops collecting weekly bribes. These Technicians are beaten up if they refuse to pay or question the operation. mny had been LOCKED UP
