According to the Force Public Relations Officer (FPRO), CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the IGP ordered the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Abiodun Alabi, to investigate the indicting statement and take necessary legal action.
“This directive is premised on the continuous effort of the Nigeria Police Force to fish out pillars and sponsors of cult groups in order to decimate their activities and restore sanity to our society.”
