Korty to Asake — “I could be your wife tomorrow who knows”❤️🥹😂😂



I want to commend the Inspector-General of Police, IGP @TunjiDisu1, for presenting cheques totalling over N2.43 billion to 1,075 next of kin and families of police officers who died in active service across the country. While many of his predecessors sat on this money for years, it is a welcome development that he has shown the courage and political will to disburse these funds to the affected families. However, N2.43 billion shared among 1,075 beneficiaries averages roughly N2.26 million per family. This is simply not good enough. Are we saying that the value of a police officer’s life in Nigeria is just N2 million? In today’s Nigeria, how far can N2 million go in taking care of a family that has lost its breadwinner? Why would an average police officer risk his life in the line of duty when he knows that, should anything happen to him, his family will be left with a paltry sum of N2 million? We can and must do better as a people and as a nation. It is high time we began prioritising the welfare of our men and women in uniform. Since you have demonstrated the decency to release what rightfully belongs to the beneficiaries, I believe your good office can take it a step further by setting up a committee to review and improve how families of officers who die in the line of duty are adequately taken care of.

Mr President @officialABAT appointed Gen. Christopher Musa (rtd) to help organise our military into a potent force. A fine General who had just been retired from service. His appointment was celebrated by all and sundry. It looked like a breath of fresh air. What does he do? He is out here wearing GCGM on his cap. The first time I have seen someone decorate a hula so much. He is showing his hands too early and making his ambitions too obvious. I have no issue with any such ambitions. If no one around him will tell him, I will do him the favours. It’s a poor look. Even politicians that didn’t (supposedly) accidentally become one aren’t so blatant and out of touch. And amidst such a security challenge, he carries that GCGM cap and goes to do a handshake with the president in London. Was he also invited by the King of England? A conventional politician being so badly behaved would have been bad enough. A recently retired fine officer politicking harder than politicians is where shock comes to meet disgust. And the rank and file are meant to be motivated and excited by these shenanigans? Let those who have been appointed to work do their job. I hope this won’t earn me a Bwala-esque soft block. This is the business of a country and we must take it seriously. I took up a case privately with a minister yesterday because I had direct access to him. And I knew him to be serious and reasonable. I am posting this here publicly because it’s the only option available to me. GCGM needs to fix up and that won’t be by us seeing those initials on his head at all times. We already know he is GCGM. I like the man and he looks like he cares. He just needs to show it. New hires must hit the ground running already and he hasn’t hit the ground, let alone be deemed to be running. We can’t even say he is a new hire now. It’s been over 3 months. It’s still the same difference, if not worse. We want results please. Please go back to the plain cap you wore when you were sworn in and leave these photo ops for ministers that can’t afford not to do them. There are bigger rewards on the back of a job well done. If things get better, I probably wouldn’t notice the cap that much.







Below is the update on the viral video: Update: The Lagos State Police Command wishes to brief the general public on the circumstances surrounding the incident at the Ikorodu axis, which resulted in a viral video alleging the operatives of the Lagos State Taskforce were driving a vehicle against traffic. At about 6:30 am on Friday, 13th March 2026, officers of the Taskforce were on routine traffic enforcement patrol, inbound Mile 12, when a vehicle was intercepted by operatives of the Safer Highway Patrol and Protection after the driver made a wrongful turning, as this is a violation of traffic regulations. In an attempt to evade arrest, the driver reversed his vehicle and rammed into an oncoming commercial mini-bus, thereby damaging the mini-bus and endangering other road users. The Safer Highway Patrol Team subsequently handed over the driver and the vehicle to Taskforce officers for further action. During the enforcement, the suspect allegedly resisted arrest and obstructed traffic, causing a temporary gridlock along the corridor. Other components of personnel attached to the Taskforce applied minimal and necessary force to remove him from the roadway and restore normal traffic flow. The damaged mini-bus was towed to the Taskforce Office in Oshodi, while the offender's vehicle was taken to Alausa for further investigation and custody. Preliminary investigation further indicated that the suspect instigated bystanders, leading to a brief mob action against Taskforce Policemen during which stones were thrown at the officers. The viral video currently circulating online was recorded by the suspect while his vehicle was being conveyed to Alausa, and does not capture the full context of the incident. The suspect, Lateef Adeyemo ‘m’, was taken before a mobile court in Oshodi, where he was charged with four (4) counts, namely: Conduct likely to cause breach of the peace; Driving in a direction prohibited by the Law of Lagos State; Obstruction of public officers in the discharge of their official duties; and Malicious damage. He was remanded to prison custody because he could not fulfil the bail conditions. Part III, Schedule 1, Item 27 of the Lagos State Road Traffic Law and Regulations 2018 prohibits driving in a direction or neglecting lawful traffic directions, an offence punishable upon conviction with one year imprisonment and forfeiture of the vehicle to the State Government. The Command urges motorists to obey traffic regulations and cooperate with law enforcement officers. The public is also advised to refrain from circulating misleading narratives capable of causing public misunderstanding.
