    Reform the police please! – Speed Darlington begs

    Published on

    Controversial singer, Speed Darlington, has appealed to President Tinubu to reform the Nigeria Police Force.

    In a video he posted, Speed Darlington said the Tinubu government shouldn’t be all about growing the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and the economy but should also be about protecting the rights of its citizens.

    ‘’Mr. President, before you leave office, whether you secure a second term or not, try your best to improve Nigeria. Everything isn’t about the economy! There is more to leadership than the economy. See as everybody dey call your name, dey complain. Nobody loves you. Na only the ones you gave work, na them love you. Even your own tribe dey complain about you.

    As an Igbo man, the advice I can give you so people will know your name and remember you for something good is to reform the police. Reform the police.

    The Nigerian police is an opperrive agency rooted in human rights violation. As a matter of fact, if they do not violate you, it’s as if they are not even doing their job.

    Please before you leave office, please speak your Yoruba brother IGP man.

    The idea of arrest before investigation is a pure human rights violation. You arrest and hold a person before you dey investigate.”

    Recounting his own experience with the police, the singer said;

    ‘’I was held for two months after the judge has ordered by release. FID held me for 2 months. According to my lawyer, the Nigerian law gives only 28 days for investigation. They held me for two months. What is the extra month for? Because they can. If you give them money, they oppress your enemy. I have experienced it”
