Police investigate AIG Moshood Jimoh over VeryDarkMan’s allegations

Police say the AIG was invited for questioning as the Force reviews misconduct claims and a related criminal case remains before court.

  • On Tuesday, the Nigeria Police Force confirmed it is investigating Assistant Inspector-General of Police Moshood Jimoh following allegations raised by social media personality Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan .
  • The controversy stems from police investigations into the killings of youth leader Sheriff Salami and Ademola Akinloye, which led to businessman Hammed Akanbi's arrest by INTERPOL in Benin Republic.
  • Formal invitations were issued to Otse on July 30 to substantiate his claims, while the Force Criminal Investigation Department in Abuja also summoned AIG Moshood Jimoh for questioning.
  • Force Public Relations Officer CSP Ani Iniedu stated the matter is "sub judice" and should be determined by courts rather than through public campaigns or media commentary.
  • The Force reaffirmed its commitment to investigating credible misconduct allegations regardless of rank, while warning that false claims intended to damage reputations could attract legal action.
