How should communities respond when a police officer extorts ₦150,000 from a farm-bound youth and is later seen using drugs in public?
I totally agree, we gats come together, shout our concerns, involve rights groups and push for real accountability.
It's telling that the same officer who extorted ₦150,000 was comfortable taking drugs in public, underscoring deeper issues.
One officer's misconduct hardly represents every police officer, although it's a serious problem that demands attention.
Encourage community watchdogs to record incidents and submit evidence to police oversight bodies for follow-up investigations.
