ENDSARS: BBNAIJA WINNER, LAYCON VISITS OGUN POLICE COMMISSIONER

The winner BBNaija reality TV show, Laycon who was recently appointed by the Ogun state Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, as Youth Ambassador of the state, has hit the ground running as he stormed the office of the state Commissioner of Police, CP Edward Ajogun.

Speaking during the visit, Laycon expressed concern over the incessant harassment and brutality of citizens by policemen in the country, pleading with the officers not to make people fear them, rather they should live by their mantra of ”Police Is Your Friend”.
In his words, “The popular ‘Police is your Friend’ mantra is different from what many citizens experience in the hands of Police officers. ”

“I usually get scared whenever I see policemen as a result of the unjust treatment I have experienced in the past . It baffles me why I would be scared of those that are meant to protect me. ”

“People should have confidence in the Police Force and not fear at the sight of them without wrongdoing.”

“Fear for men of the Nigeria Police Force is majorly from the brutality many have suffered over the years with little or no consequences.

“But now, as the Youth Ambassador in Ogun State, I hope to see this become a thing of the past while I give my support to the Force in whatever way it is requires”.

Responding, the state Commissioner of Police assured the Ogun youth ambassador that the Force does not condone acts of brutality by its officers, adding that it had a special unit that investigates cases of Police brutality and takes necessary actions against officers found guilty.
