The IGP set up a Special Investigation Panel to carry out a discreet and transparent investigation into the allegation.

According to Force Public Relations Officer, CP Frank Mba, the probe followed a report “making the rounds in the media alleging the involvement of the officers in the extortion of twenty-two million naira worth of Bitcoin from two young Nigerians, Morakinyo Tobiloba Peter and Yusuf Samson Dayo at gunpoint on July 14, 2021, while driving along the Ikoyi/Ajah Expressway, Lagos State”.

The statement added that the personnel named in the report have been ordered to report to the Panel at the Force Headquarters in Abuja on Tuesday for further quizzing.
