The Inspector General of Police (IGP), Mr. Olatunji Disu, has ordered the dismissal of ASP Nuhu Usman and five other officers involved in the brutal killing of Mene Ogidi, at Effurin, Delta State.
He described the incident as criminal and unprofessionalism and ordered the criminal prosecution of all the suspects.
Disu, who gave the order in Abuja, said he had already forwarded the recommendations for their dismissal to the Police Service Commission (PSC) for final ratification in line with constitutional requirements.
At a media briefing in Abuja, he commiserated with the family, friends, and community of the late Ogidi, calling for calm and assuring that justice would not only be done but seen to be done.
He also appealed to the residents of Delta State and the nation at large to remain calm and law-abiding and not take the law into their hands.
