The Lagos State Police Command has interrogated three officers for allegedly extorting N1 million from members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in the Surulere area of the metropolis.
This followed the release of footage of the encounter by one Oluyemi Fasipe on his X handle on Friday.
He wrote: “Dear @BenHundeyin, Your officers today in Surulere extorted 1 million naira from three corps members. They were threatened with firearms, kidnapped, and taken to the KAFARU OLUWOLE TINUBU HOUSE AREA C POLICE COMMAND of the @LagosPoliceNG where they were robbed.
In another post on his X handle, the command’s spokesman, Benjamin Hundeyin, said the three officers have been summoned for investigation on the allegation.
“The men have been summoned and their trial has commenced.
“We urge the complainants to visit the Complaint Response Unit at the State Headquarters to testify at the ongoing trial,” the spokesman added.
