Police authorities in Delta have announced that following the growing trend of ritual killings, kidnapping, and internet fraud, it will arrest, probe and charge to court citizens with suspicious sources of wealth, who cannot justify their means of earnings.
The spokesman of the command in Delta State, Bright Edafe, said this on Sunday in a post on his official X handle.
The police image maker noted that the force men are empowered to arrest individuals who could not justify their sources of income and make them face the wrath of the law when found guilty.
Edafe maintained that the police force had told its operatives to do the right thing and avoid seeing justifiable sources of income as a means to extort Nigerians.
“It is a very sad trend that people feel it’s wrong to question the suspicious wealth of persons who cannot lay claim to any justifiable means of income. We have cases of ritual killings, Kidnapping, and even internet fraud. We tell our men to do the right thing and not take it as an avenue to extort.
“However, any person arrested and can’t justify his source of income should be properly investigated and charged to court when the cockroach in his cupboard has been unveiled. Like me, hate me, I don’t mind, it’s the simple truth”.
