Nigerian police officer arrested for mocking Buhari, Osinbajo's govt

Yobe police command has arrested a police officer, Sunday Japhet, for allegedly insulting President Muhammadu Buhari, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, and the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Mohammed Adamu.



Yobe police commissioner, Sunmonu Abdulmaliki, confirmed the arrest on Wednesday.



Mr. Japhet, who is said to be a part of the Mobile Police (MOPOL), had on August 9 bared his mind on the state of the country on Facebook, Igbere TV reports.



He wrote: “This is Nigeria, with a president who want to fight corruption and tackle insecurities, with the vice who claimed to be a man of God without truth, with many elected senators, with IGP that we think things will change, its a pity for them, those that lead this country, I pray that this demonstration that is going to happen on 14 /8 in Maiduguri, Yobe, Adamawa and other places that mobile police on special duty are going to hold for their allowances be the beginning of something in this great country led by evil men.”









“We are inviting all the media to be there for us, these people calls themselves leaders are all aware that this money used to be in some people joint account to get interested, then after 3-4 month they pay, no one will say he doesn’t know what is happening that this money is not paid, God will come down himself to help Nigerian if really this is Buhari handling this country this way, I better die for truth than to be seeing nonsense.”



The police commissioner was quoted saying Japhet has been transferred to Zone 12 headquarters in Bauchi.
