Ire o.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Responding to him, Adejobi threatened the X user to withdraw his statement. He noted that police officers are not paupers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPolice officers are not paupers. Withdraw your statement. It\u2019s ridiculous to us to say a DSP can\u2019t use Samsung fold 2. You need to reason straight and be objective. Do you know what it is to be a DSP?\u201d He wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Reacting to Adejobi\u2019s comment, Mr Macaroni stated the need for the Nigeria police to also withdraw every statement they have made profiling Nigerian youths when they see expensive items.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo Nigerian Police don\u2019t like profiling?<\/p>\n<p>My dear, you will like this profiling ooo.<\/p>\n<p>You will like oppression. In fact you will love extortion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou will also romance intimidation and harassment because that is what you give to Nigerian youths everyday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNigerian Youths are not paupers! Over 95% of the Nigerian Police will need to withdraw their statements and profiling of Nigerian youths that we have been made to suffer since all these years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s ridiculous to us to say a Nigerian youth can\u2019t use a nice phone or dress nice or use a nice car. You and your officers need to reason straight and be objective. Do you know what it is to be a Nigerian Youth?\u201d He queried.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
