Conflicting Claims Over ACP Braide’s Deployment Spark FCID Power-Tussle Allegations

Conflicting claims over ACP Ngozi Braide’s deployment have triggered allegations of an internal power tussle within the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID). Some officers at the FCID Annex in Alagbon, Lagos, alleged that Braide had been absent from her duty post for months and called for an investigation. They also questioned whether a reported foreign trip received the required approval. Other officers disputed the allegation, saying she was officially deployed on a special assignment at the FCID Headquarters in Abuja under DIG Margaret Ochalla. They said the deployment was approved and communicated through official police signals. The allegations, including claims of breaches of the chain of command, have not been independently verified. The police officers and authorities mentioned had not issued public responses as of the time of the report.
