Police officers deployed to Borno
State on special duty on Monday took to the streets, barricading the highway to
protest six months of unpaid allowances.
The police officers were said to
have been deployed to Borno State from various units across Nigeria to help in
the fight against insurgency.
The angry police officers were
also shooting in the air on Monday morning forcing motorists nearby to scamper
for safety.
The Commissioner of Police in
Borno State, Damian Chukwu, who spoke to journalists on the development, said
the police was aware of the situation.
He explained that the unpaid
allowances had to do with the delay in signing the 2018 budget.
