Imo State Police Commissioner, Aboki Danjuma, has demoted an officer, Inspector Isong Osudueh, attached to the Counter Terrorism Unit (CTU) in Owerri. This action comes after a widely circulated video showed him extorting money from motorists along the Owerri-Onitsha Expressway.
Danjuma announced the disciplinary action in a statement by the Command’s spokesman, Henry Okoye, condemning the officer’s behavior as “shameful and unprofessional.”
Additionally, the supervisory officer has been issued an official query for lack of supervision.
Aboki, who strongly condemned the officer’s actions, emphasized that the Command would not tolerate any form of extortion or misconduct by its personnel.
He issued a stern warning, stating that supervisory officers who neglect their oversight duties would face severe sanctions.
The CP urged residents to continue supporting the police and other security agencies by providing timely and actionable information to ensure public safety.
“This incident underscores the police Command’s dedication to upholding professionalism, transparency, and integrity among its personnel,” he emphasized.
