The Paramount Ruler of Iwoland, HIM Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, has asked Nigerians to stop blaming corrupt police officers should the federal government fail to increase their salary.

Oba Akanbi stated police job is an envy of many in advanced countries, charging the federal government to encourage Nigerians in joining the force through more funding.

Oluwo made the call today at a one day town hall meeting organized by the Police Service Commission, held in Ibadan, the Oyo State.

He said the take home salary of police officers is discouraging and called for a review of their salary structure. He pointed no many will e endeared to such delicate but poorly renumerated job. I commend the present government but more can still be done.

“In some advanced countries, the police is an envy of many. It is well funded. The Nigerian government are enjoined to promote the Nigerian Police Force through adequate funding and recruitment of more personnel. Nigeria should be a police state to effectively combat crimes”

“The low renumeration couples with indiscriminate attacks on police officers discourage many. Nigerians should stop blaming corrupt police officers if the government refuse to increase their salary”

“The minimum wage for the least police officer should be 100,000. It is only when these are done we can courageously challenge police officers taking bribes. If not, we should blame them less” Oluwo
