Former police spokesperson Olumuyiwa Adejobi has strongly warned Nigerians against mounting pressure on security agencies to release or pardon suspected criminals, describing the act as shameful and criminal in itself.
Adejobi, who is currently the Deputy Commissioner of Operations in the Delta State Police Command and a former National Public Relations Officer of the Nigeria Police Force, issued the warning in a post on his official X handle on Monday.
“I always maintain my stance and principles when it comes to fighting crimes and criminality. Don’t even bother to contact me, pleading for a criminal. It’s shameful, and it won’t work out well,” he stated.
He added: “Anyone begging and mounting pressure on the police and security agencies to release or pardon a criminal or overlook a crime is also a criminal.”
Adejobi urged the nation’s security architecture and citizens to remain resolute in the fight against crime, saying, “No two ways about it. We need to stand firm, remain resolute in curbing crimes and vices in our society, collectively.”
His remarks come at a time when terrorists are demanding the release of detained fighters in exchange for abducted individuals, including a retired Major General and school pupils in Oyo State.
