The Delta State Police Command has advocated that citizens who cannot explain their sources of wealth would be arrested and charged to court.
The State Police Public Relations Officer, Bright Edafe, stated this following the recent trend of kidnapping, ritual killings and internet fraud.
The PPRO expressed concerns that some Nigerians presumed it was wrong to question what he called the ‘suspicious wealth’ of those who cannot lay claim to any justifiable means of income.
Bright via his X page wrote: “It is a very sad trend that people feel it’s wrong to question the suspicious wealth of persons who cannot lay claim to any justifiable means of income. We have cases of ritual killings, Kidnapping, and even internet fraud. We tell our men to do the right thing and not take it as an avenue to extort.
“However, any person arrested and can’t justify his source of income should be properly investigated and charged to court when the cockroach in his cupboard has been unveiled. Like me, hate me, I don’t mind, it’s the simple truth.”
He maintained that the police force has instructed its operatives to do the right thing and refrain from using justifiable sources of income as a means to extort Nigerians.
