E-X-P-O-S-E-D: HowPolice New IG allegedlyplotting to assassinateNSCDC boss

The rivalry between between the Nigeria
Police and the Nigeria Security and Civil
Defence Corps (NSCDC) has degenerated to a
deadly dimension over the weekend as the
NSCDC has alleged plots by the Police
authority to kill Dr. Ade Abolurin, it
Commandant General.
The NSCDC in a statement signed by its
Public Relations Officer, Emmanuel Okeh, had
recounted how Dr. Abolurin survived an
assassination attempt in Ikorodu, Lagos State.
The statement further stated that the
policeman claimed to be acting on the orders
of the acting Inspector General of Police,
Suleiman Abba.
"The Commandant General of Nigeria Security
and Civil Defence Corps, Dr. Ade Abolurin,
who on inspection and assessment tour of
disposable forfeited items along with other
committee members from the Nigerian Army,
EFCC, ICPC, office of the Attorney General of
the federation among others came under
siege when a suspected police inspector
attempted to open fire on them at Ikorodu,
Lagos State.
"The attack was orchestrated by the arrest of
some suspected vandals and oil thieves on
the waters in possession of petroleum
products in several jerry cans, including two
big Cotonou boats. The suspected police team
who came in an unmarked danfo bus carrying
AK47 riffles challenged the CG that they are
in charge, so, he has no right to visit the area
because it belongs to the police.
"The committee which the CG, NSCDC is the
chairman was constituted by the office of the
Attorney General of the federation and has for
some time now been on assessment tour of
the country for disposable forfeited items
used for vandalism of critical infrastructure.
"However, attempt by members of the
committee to caution the officer was rebuffed
by him and members of his team claiming
that they are on a mission here so everyone
should steer clear.
"Further investigation reveals that a distress
call was put across to the suspected police
team by the arrested vandals and upon
arrival, their aim was to set them off the hook
of NSCDC by threatening to shoot the CG who
masterminded the arrest of their partners in
this illicit business and secondly to prevent
the committee from confiscating the
recovered items which has become exhibits in
event of prosecution.
