Nigerians have reacted to the decision of the Inspector-General of Police, IGP, Idris Mohammed, to withdraw 6 policemen attached to the Chairman, Five Star Group, Emeka Okonkwo aka E-Money.

E-Money is the brother of Nigerian musician, Kelechi Okonkwo popularly known as K-Cee.

The report emerged on different news platforms on Tuesday and trended on social media that the IG ordered the Lagos State Police Command to withdraw the security personnel attached to E-money and also probe his source(s) of wealth.

 the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Bala Elkana, said the command only obeyed the orders from the IGP.

According to him, “Well we got the directive from the Inspector General to withdraw police guards from E-Money and we did exactly so.”

On the claim making the rounds that E-Money was using his Mobile Police guards as domestic servants, Elkana said, “The reason for the withdrawal I don’t know. Whether he was using them as domestic servants I don’t know where that is coming from.”

However, some Nigerians who shared their opinion on Twitter blamed the government for not providing an enabling environment for police officers to do their jobs.

Some also asked the IGP to withdraw police officers attached to politicians and other big shots in the country, not just E-Money.
