WE DON'T HAVE ACCREDITED AGENTS FOR PROCESSING PETITIONS, SUBMIT YOUR PETITIONS DIRECTLY TO OUR OFFICES - FPRO  It has been observed that many Nigerians seek the help and services of some unscrupulous and dubious elements in processing written complaints or petitions, which has hindered the smooth attention such petitions deserve and denied many justice. The Nigeria Police does not have agents to take and process petitions from Nigerians. These elements charge and dupe people of huge amounts under the pretence of processing their complaints with such monies and denting the image of the Police and our Senior Officers. This is improper and unacceptable. Nigerians are hereby urged to always drop petitions to our offices as normal correspondence, as there are no special treatments, or administrative bureaucracies on petitions.  The public is urged to expose and report anyone who is fond of doing that via our published complaint platforms. We condemn this in its totality and will do e

“She Was Right About Edo Girls” – Kemi Olunloyo Defends Blessing CEO Over Statement On Edo Women She wrote: “Blessing CEO was right about Edo girls though. I found out about this in 2007 in Canada that most are trafficked for pr0st^tution in Italy and some mothers were well aware and supported it. The ones trafficked from Italy to Canada usually have small children and their goal is to get Canadian PR cards leading to citizenship. The Oba of Benin once cursed the traff^ckers blaming them. One lady came on Arise News last week to tell her ordeal where she was lied to, promised work, and turned into a s^x sl^ve. Many Nigerian females organized Pr^st^tution rings in Ghana 🇬🇭 too.
