Police Bail Is Free: Report Any Demand for Payment

Police Bail Is Free: Report Any Demand for Payment

Police bail is free under Nigerian law. No one should be asked to pay money before a person can be granted bail at a police station. If an officer demands payment for bail, step outside calmly and report the matter to the appropriate police complaint channel. Keep any evidence of the demand, including names, messages, receipts, or recordings where lawful.
