Reality star, Adekunle Olopade has given an update on his police case.
According to him, the officers who brutalized him have been found and will face disciplinary action.
Recall that the media personality had earlier claimed that he was assaulted by the Nigerian Police.
According to him, the security personnel unjustly harassed him after taking a night drive in his mother’s car
However, speaking via his 𝕏 account, Adekunle confirmed that the officers involved in the case have been prosecuted.
“In the last few days, the only news you’ve heard from me has been difficult, but at this very moment, I would like to share some good news with you. I want to use this opportunity to thank the Lagos State Police Command Complaint Response Unit for their prompt attention to this matter.
“From reaching out, swinging into action the moment the news broke, and following up to make sure everything was okay. I have been in talks with the ACP in charge of the Area J Command, Elemoro, Ibeju Lekki, providing her with all the details necessary with hopes that the officers at fault would be found and brought to book,” he stated.
Adekunle also expressed his excitement about the development, urging citizens not to succumb to bullying from those in authority.
He urged Nigerians to report cases of harassment and police brutality. Adekunle also thanked the ACP, Oluyemisi Ojo, for taking up the case and ensuring justice was served.
“I am happy to let you know that I just left the Elemoro Police Station, and thanks to the effort and investigation of ACP Oluyemisi Ojo, the police officers were found, and disciplinary action has been taken against them.
“Justice has been served! I can’t begin to describe how much of a heavy burden and emotional weight has been lifted off my shoulders. The mere fact that justice can be served at a time where public trust for the police is very low is truly encouraging.
“For everyone who has ever been treated badly at the hands of police officers, please make sure you report the case. Get as much evidence as you can and take the matter up.
“The Lagos State Complaint Response Unit (on Instagram) works, and their job is to ensure the safety of the citizens while also sanitizing the system of the bad officers,” he added.
