The Nigeria Police Force has addressed a viral video circulating online that shows police officers allegedly forcing their way into a residential apartment in Ado-Ekiti, the Ekiti State capital.
The video, which surfaced on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), was shared by a user identified as Michael, who goes by the handle @MichaelFrosh32.
In his post, Michael accused the officers, reportedly part of the state’s Operation Flush, of attempting a “daylight robbery” at a residence in the Adebayo area of the city.
Raising alarm over the incident, Michael urged the police hierarchy to investigate and hold the officers accountable for their actions.
In response, the Police Complaint Response Unit (CRU) acknowledged the video and promised to look into the matter.
Through its official X handle, the CRU replied:
“Dear #MichaelFrosh32, kindly provide more details via DM. Thank you for bringing this to the attention of the Police force. #NoToImpunity.”
The Police did not confirm whether the officers in the video were acting on official orders or under what circumstances the entry occurred, but emphasized that further investigation would follow upon receipt of additional information.
