Report Any Police That Asks For Bribe – IG

The new Inspector General of Police, Solomon Arase, has urged Nigerians to stop bribing policemen and should do well to report them if they ask for bribe. Arase during a press briefing in Abuja, whether bail was free or not said:

“We have a zero tolerance for payment of money to free suspect. I am appealing to members of the public, not to corrupt my men; It takes two to tango. If they ask you for bribe and you refuse to give, and you have avenues where your grievances can be ventilated, I do not see any reason why you should give them bribe. The Commissioner of Police is there; the Area Commander is there; the DPO is there; and the technical platform (to report corrupt policemen) is there. We have opened ourselves to public accountability. So, you cannot now say the whole problem should be blamed on the police force’

Will this work???
