  3. Good boy:

    Nigeria must experience great transformation. Gradually, this is just the beginning. Police officers must change for good and good for all Nigerians.

    I think the cause of corruption in the police is because of their black uniform. Now the uniform is changeed from black to a better colour.

    N20.00 syndrom will soon die.

  5. The offer was too small for a policeman stationed around Apapa port. What a stipend for big bribe taker. I pity Abdul Ganiy for being poor. Sorry boy!

  6. NigerianEye, do not loss focus!!!!!!!!!!!
    Why was the man arrested in the first place? Offering bride was to escape justice for his arrest. Was he jailed for what crime or for offering bribe? This report lacks objective.
    For the police officer, Kudos to you.
    How I wish that other criminals like civil service criminals and politicians can be given this type of speedy prosecution...Nigeria judiciary is corrupt in discharging their duty...The land is on fire. We the youth will soon revolt against all enemies of the state.

  7. This is no news. Dig into the matter deeply. It may be that the guy didn't give the police guy the amount the police guy wanted.
