NEW Delta State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Ikechukwu Aduba, Thursday, asked policemen in the state to return to the highways to fight armed robbers, kidnappers and other criminals.

He said the Inspector General of Police, Mr. Mohammed Abubakar, in ordering the dismantling of road blocks nationwide, did not say that policemen should vacate the highways  for criminals.

Commissioner Aduba, who is on operational tour of police formations in the state, told newsmen after meeting with the Area Commander, Warri, Mr. Yaro Abutu and Divisional Police Officers, DPOs, in the area, Thursday, that  he was taken aback that from Asaba – Ughelli – Warri, he did not see policemen on the highway performing their duty.

Twenty-four hours after the commissioner gave the directive, Thursday, Saturday Vanguard discovered  on a trip from Warri to Asaba that policemen immediately complied with the directive, as they were sighted with anti-crime patrol vehicles, along the  the Warri-Agbor old express way and Agbor -Asaba expressway, yesterday.

Aduba  clarified that while the Inspector General frowned at barricading of roads  in the name of road blocks by policemen, he never said they should stay off the highways. He therefore asked  Area Commanders and DPOs to deploy their men to carry out stop- and- search operations without causing hold ups in order to check the  siege of  criminals in the State.

Why would police not disappear from the highways when the only reason for their being there which is setting up road blocks and collecting N20 has been stopped. Otherwise, how does a simple IG directive to dismantle road blocks amount to police disappearing from the highway. These are just arm-twisting methods they use to create the impression that we cant do without road blocks as robbering will naturally increase without police patroling the highways.

It's a pity dat there is no more respect for constituted authority in Nigeria. How can the commissioner of police flout a simple and significant order of his superior. Were the police nt on the highways to fight crime before? Did they nt hide under that impression to make life miserable for Nigerians? It's like the CP has been used to the booties gained by their legal robbery on the highways. Well, I am nt surprised by the CP's order. It has happened in the road safety before and it's still happening. The frsc boss too disregarded the House order. When he was asked to stop issueing the new driver's license, he refused and went ahead issueing it.
That is the story in Nigeria. We are expecting when the military men will disregard the generals' and President order to go to war. Well, God forbid!

Nigerian police will always devise means of collecting bribe,which they value above any directive from the government or their superiors
 For them to give up collecting bribe,will be like asking Dracula to give up sucking blood.  Sad Sad Sad
