The Nigerian police remains the prominent law enforcement agency in Nigeria. As part of its statutory functions, the protection of the citizens' lives and properties is their primary responsibility in a country like ours. Deliberately or rather unmindful, the Police expose citizens to hazards without addressing the consequences of their actions. This pathetic situation is not worth celebrating by the citizens that require the day to day assurances of the Police.
In this particular instance, it was reported that a new car was snatched by the robbers from a lady, who reported the case to the near by police station where the act happened, when she got to the station she saw the police officer discussing with the suspects that snatched her car the previous day. She wept bitterly and quietly left the station.
This will not be the first case that will be reported and definitely not the last. It is as if nobody seems to be interested in any investigating cases of this unholy act by the police. The police ought in the wee-hour of the night to protect innocent and harmless citizens, but in our case they don't, instead, they connive with culprits.
