The Force described the officers’ conduct as “clearly inconsistent with the professional standards and decorum expected” of police personnel.
This was disclosed in a statement by the Force Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi, and shared on the Nigeria Police Facebook page on Wednesday.
First News correspondent learnt that the incident which appears to have taken place on or around a movie set has raised widespread public concern and criticism.
“While it remains unclear whether the scene was part of a scripted production, the conduct of the officers seen in the video falls short of the standards expected of members of the Nigeria Police Force,” the statement read.
