The Nigerian Police Force says it has arrested the drunk policeman seen in a recent trending video.
The police officer who was completely “wasted” was filmed at CBN Junction, the FCT Police Command after residents gathered and took his rifle away to prevent him from shooting anyone in his drunken state.
The police said the unnamed officer has been arrested and will be subjected to psychological and medical evaluation as ordered by the Commissioner of Police, CP. Bala Ciroma.
The police said disciplinary actions against the drunk officer will commence after the evaluation.
The police said it “wishes to unequivocally state that the behaviour portrayed by the Policeman in the video does not depict the standard discipline of the Nigeria Police Force.”
