Police probe Blord over alleged illegal use of officers as VIP escorts
The Nigeria Police Force has commenced an investigation into businessman Linus Williams Ifejirika, popularly known as Blord, over allegations that he unlawfully used police officers as personal security escorts.
The development was announced on Wednesday by the Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Anietie Okokon Edem Iniedu, in a statement issued in response to a viral video showing the businessman alongside uniformed police officers.
The police spokesperson described the alleged use of the officers as illegal and confirmed that an investigation had been launched to establish the circumstances surrounding the incident.
“Unlawful and illegal. Investigation has commenced into this incident, please. We say #NoToImpunity,” he stated.
The video, which sparked the police probe, reportedly showed Blord accompanied by uniformed police officers in different settings, including what appeared to be a modern interior and a building entrance.
The development comes amid a presidential directive ordering the withdrawal of police officers attached to VIPs to enable them to focus on their primary responsibility of protecting lives and property.
