Lagos: Police identify inspector in viral video, begin disciplinary action

The Lagos State Police Command has identified the police inspector seen in a viral video making inappropriate remarks during a public transport journey. In a statement released on Friday, the command announced that disciplinary proceedings have been initiated against Inspector Osumah Frank.

Commissioner of Police Tijani Fatai stressed the importance of professionalism, civility, and discipline for police personnel while interacting with the public.

He warned that any conduct damaging to the police's reputation would not be tolerated, reaffirming the command's dedication to transparency, accountability, and policing with humility and integrity.
