"Politicians Will Sabotage Police Efforts In Their New Code Of Conduct" - Charlyboy

-

Charlyboy, a.k.a. AreaFada said the new code of conduct of the Nigerian Police Force was a welcome development, but expressed fear that with the over-zealousness of the Nigerian politicians, who see themselves as Demi-gods, the implementation would be difficult to achieve.
Speaking after his brief attendance to the official launching of the Code of Conduct and Professional Standards for Nigerian Police Officers at the International Conference Centre (ICC), Abuja, AreaFada stated that even though the IG of Police meant well for the nation and the Nigeria Police Force, there were other forces ranging from politics, poor social welfare of the officers as well as the existing mentality of the average Nigerian who sees the police man as a brutal oppressor.
The celebrity said, "Even though we all know Mr. MD Abubakar as a man of innovation, there are forces that will continuously fight to suppress his effort. The politicians are out there to intimidate us with the police. One wonders if they will allow this man to do his job. Aside this, the welfare of the police is another thing that calls for great concern. You don’t expect a man who battles with three square meals to relate well with the people. For this reason, the government should look for a way to better the welfare of the Police Force."
Charlyboy, while saying that though the code of conduct was one of the best ways to sanitize the police about their general attitude towards their professional duties, affirmed that it goes far beyond printing the code of conduct on the pages of papers. He stressed on the need for an aggressive public enlightenment campaign on who to report to, in case the police code of conduct is violated at any point in time. He also asserted that with the innovation of the present IG of Police, a public enlightenment campaign would be possible in order to assure the public that the police is truly their friend.
After being asked of his standing relationship with the Nigerian police for being the only celebrity invited for the event, CB, as he is fondly called, said in the most hilarious way "I’m now a police officer. Don’t I look like them? I think I have so much to do with the Police Force. I represent a reasonable number of the Nigerian youth whom they protect, and I want to make sure that the youth understand the vision of the present IG of police. We are together in this campaign for a better policing."

Nigerians Are Good People Indeed

The dispatch with which ordinary Nigerians rescued the motorist whose vehicle plunged into the Lagos lagoon from the Third Mainland Bridge on Saturday, January 26, 2013 proved once more that Nigerians are great people. Unlike most stories from Nigeria that usually end on a sad and demoralising note, this story ended on a happy note like a Nollywood film. It was nothing short of a miracle. The sole occupant of that vehicle was brought out of the lagoon alive. But he was not rescued by the Nigerian Navy or the Nigeria Police Force; neither was he rescued by the National Emergency Management Agency or Lagos State Emergency Management Agency or any agency of Lagos State. Mr Shola Oladimeji was rescued by fishermen.  These were not fishermen that used modern boats with special gadgets or equipment. These were men with old-fashioned canoes with paddles. They saw a car plunge into the water and went swiftly and got the occupant of the vehicle out, alive.  Before the government a
