ACP Muyiwa Adejobi, the police spokesperson in Nigeria said that the policemen who extorted over N3m from Liberty Isaac in Bayelsa have been identified.

Last week, a Ghana based Nigerian, Liberty Kelechi Isaac, has urged the inspector General of Police to fish out some policemen who extorted N3m from him on a gunpoint on Monday.

Isaac who said that he was in the country to attend a friend’s Traditional marriage ceremony in Bayelsa state, disclosed that the policemen forced him to unlock his phone and on seeing a N10m Bank alert they started beating him and threatened to kill him if he failed to transfer N6m to them.

This act is unacceptable and condemned. I personally engaged the cp, and we are on it. Justice will be served. Thanks, “he said.
