Channels TV exposed the deplorable conditions of the dormitories at the training college where recruits spend months to get training to become police officers. The condition of the hostels, the bathrooms, and even the way they feed is so shameful. N150 daily meal allowance. There has been no major development at the college since it was built in the 40's except for a few renovations. They even still use type-writer. The College was built for 700 students, but now has 2,554 trainees. See for yourself after the cut...
Now watch the video
The very first day I stepped into this place, I was shocked. The deplorable condition was too annoying to describe. At least now that its in the open the govt might do sth. Sad.

FYI all the police people I know are smart, the system is faulty so na d result we dey suffer&im not a police officer
Deletewhat cave did you just crawl out from? you must be a police fool otherwise you will not insult someone's parents when they express thier opinion about a situation. the system is faulty, who makes the sysytem? is it not people? you have policemen who do not even know what being an officer entails and you are running your filthy mouth

ReplyDeleteMy dear oh! This is beyond deplorable.
DeleteHow can this be happening.
ReplyDeleteSpeechless.
Politicians stealing and buying latest jets and whatever while common essential services obligations cannot be met.
No doubt, Revolution is on the horizon for Nijja. And it will be very, very bloody.
OMG!!!!!! in life no Nigerian will ever believe that the police recruit goes through this hell to be a police personnel, then what are we talking that police is bad!! what can u get from this type of person, please this video should go viral so that the govt shall see and the outside world can see and question the qovt, it iss very very very shameful for our govt both the past and present

#sadmuch
Babington.
After watching this ... I will certainly go easy with my condemnation of the Nigerian police, no body can come out a better person from this pit hole!!!
ReplyDeleteOMGsh, no sane individual can come out from this place... Hence d issue we re facing with security and police brutality...
Again Sambo was crying that the N14Billion given to him to build tower of babel is/wasnt enough!!
The same condition can be found @ UBTH... Spy camera pls go there and see for yourselves.
Yet we flew war planes to Mali to gain international recognition, we are yet to fight the boko haram nemesis in our back yard. Which way Nigeria.
Didn't de say we hve over 100 private jet again... Where re the clegymen, where are the traditional leaders, where are the men n women of integrity and valour. Why are we still waiting for help from above when we have been equiped to fight, and fight for what is ours.... I don't see it getting better with this generation!!!
#DropsMic
why won't they be ruthless ,rent out guns to armed robbers and collect bribe…the people vested with protecting our lives look at the deplorable conditions they are living?
ReplyDeletethey are a victim of the corrupt inspector generals and other bosses,the minister for police affairs they are victims of armed robbers and upon all we average nigerians will turn around to curse and abuse them…in 2003 when i was in nigeria on holidays i had an argument with a policemen and they tok me to the police station ostensibly to punish me by delaying me while i was there i saw first one and then two and then more policemen with buckets of water going to bath under the cover of darkness in a corner of the compound no covering or anything..
i was so pissed off at their conditions and while interviewing them they said they are transferred from their bases but not given any allowance for accommodation so they end up sleeping in the cells and offices and then bath under cover of darkness in plain sight
Why u think they shoot people anyhow at their killer checkpoints? After graduatin from here do any of us think they'll be normal the way they came in? Nope...pigstein college.
ReplyDeleteThis is what you call POVERTY AT ITS FINEST. Shame on NIGERIA. Police Academy is suppose to look so amazing that you would want to join. Police officers are suppose to be the fine face of your country. JEEEEEEEZ. No Respect for this foolishness at all. My stomach went in knots for the man sitting on the edge of the bed eating. All this just to make a living. Well sha, God dey
ReplyDeleteThe IGP, his DIGs and AIGs take all the money. Disgusting.
ReplyDeleteYes o!!! And treat officers 'scrutus' like scum
DeleteAhhhh dis is so sad haba see suffer nigeria government should do somtyn abt dis abeg its so alarmingly disgusting
ReplyDeleteThis is just sooo sad. Our country needs serious help.SMH
ReplyDeleteIt brought tears to my eyes...God save naija from these looters,for christ sake!
ReplyDeleteThe government approved 2 billion naira to build a house for the Vice President but this police college cannot get an overhaul? This is the reason why this country isn't moving forward. The govt needs to get their priorities straight.
ReplyDeleteDis is riduclous.. I almost trow up @ d look of d food..looks like a baby stoll..lolzzz
ReplyDeleteIs Nigeria insured? cos we need to burn it down and start all over...as for this,BRF is working...smh
ReplyDeleteLuks lik a typical nigerian prison.Pathetic
ReplyDeleteJESUS CHRIST,,,,,,,, KAIIII SMH
ReplyDeleteDis just reminds me of camp. NYSC camp,dats d worst place after hell.I am pretty sure of dat.
ReplyDeleteI weep in Sumalia. Wat is dis
ReplyDeleteOh my days
ReplyDeleteThis is pathetic, what will it cost them to put this place in order? Probably they are trying to make used to the harsh condition of life..lol
ReplyDeleteLOOKS EXACTLY LIKE MY NYSC ORIENTATION CAMP
ReplyDeleteThe reality is that as a country we are 30years behind the rest of the world. If our police college facility can be like this in 2013, then you know that we have a very long way to go as a nation. How can this kind of facility in such a deplorable condition and environment produce fine officers. absolutely no way. you can build something on nothing.
ReplyDeleteIn fact it is the high of irresponsibility to have this kind of police college in 21st century. i pity our leaders
ReplyDeleteOmg!
ReplyDeleteWhy would human beings live in such deplorable state.
This explains their incompetency.
This is so pathetic!
What!
Tell me why someone that newly graduates from this nonsensical college must not be worse than an armed robber?
ReplyDeleteYuck!!!
ReplyDeleteAND THEN AFTER THEY GRADUATE, THIS SAME GOVERNMENT WILL GIVE THEM A GUN. LORD!!!
ReplyDeletenow i see why niga police do act lyk wild animals..... niga don suffer.....
ReplyDeleteyea, channels tv exposed this this morning. shame to the Nigerian govt. Linda u left out the part where 50 officers share a head of fish during meal times.
ReplyDeleteNow i see the reason why they act so recklessly after coming out from this shithole. Government! the theives in power will just not let funds get to the right quarters. what a shame!
police sef need love hehehehe
ReplyDeleteNo wonder policemen are always so grumpy and ill mannered....they were trained like animals hence their behavior or misbehavior
ReplyDeleteNaija the great!! I Hail! I have given up on my great nation! I give up oooooohh!
ReplyDeletePolicemen are dirty pigs anyways...it is good they live like animals...when they re killing innocent citizens and collecting bribes they don't know..it is good for them..worst police force in the world
ReplyDeleteThis is so disheartening
ReplyDeletelinda ikejis,,you see dear,any nigerian police officer that has stayed or has lived in that shitt palace and refused to take a bribe is a 100percents coward in a human flesh,,but we need a change,,here in swiss,dear,police men even a day old police man recieved big money than we that has a deploma and work 100percents
ReplyDeleteSeriously shameful. Though I am not sure why it's just coming out. I hadn't been back to Nigeria for 10 years, when I landed and was on the way to the island we drove past the building and the squalid state of the building from the road was blatantly obvious. I wonder if dignitaries are driven that way on the way back from the airport. What an advert for Lagos and the country. The next time Jay-Z and Beyonce are in town the government should take them on a tour of the campus, i'm sure they will be impressed.
ReplyDeleteThose poor recruits are supposed to graduate and enforce the law....and then we wonder why they are all corrupt, it's part of their training, nurture.
Even the feeding stations at Unicef refugee camps are beter stocked and equipped.
All this whilst our leaders and elite gallivant the world showing off with expensive cars and houses, flying first class. It just shows where our priorities are, people would rather spend on superficial crap than give back to the community they live in, and then they wonder why they get car jacked and robbed in their houses.......doh!!!!!!!
Nigeria is a country full of opposites, wretchedness in the midst of plenty.
ReplyDeleteThe Five Counterfeits of Love
This is unbelievable!!am still amazed.,even bed supported with bricks?while every outgoing IGP has so much in his loot!
ReplyDeleteHow can one live in such an enviroment and be any better.I see why nig police are dirty irresponsible and corrupt.
Shame on naija !
This is appalling, what re we doing? Where do we go from here? Its grieves my heart to see dis.*sobs*
ReplyDeleteEwww!! i feel very sorry for Nigeria :(
ReplyDeleteWhen they rate Nigeria as the worst place to be born in...people would start crying foul! Well, how else would one explain this??? Very pathetic!
ReplyDeleteWe treat them like animals, they come out and bite us. Just as trained!
ReplyDeleteThe IGP was amomg those nominated for man of the year by Silverbird, SHAME!!! Can they tell me they didn't know this place is in a deplorable state? Not fit for animals talkless of humans. I served in Ondo State and my Camp was 100 percent better than this.
ReplyDeleteSpeechless
ReplyDeletewhat the hell is this?????????? i must do something...............
ReplyDeleteTYPEWRITER? HABA! No wonder our police is like this. I agree with prince charming.. we need an overhaul
ReplyDeleteI'm still wondering if this is a refugee camp.
ReplyDeleteOh please wait till you can get the pictures of Ikoyi prison, you would pray for the Devil not to be held captive there!
ReplyDeleteGABBAGE IN...GABBAGE OUT!!!
ReplyDeleteNo wonder they end up as something else after conclusion of the college...
ReplyDeleteKie,d syt of dis place is so disgusting.Even d homless aboki's in warri wuld prefer 2 continue slipin inside fillin stations n uncompleted buildings 2 dat place dat looks lik hell,s cousin.
ReplyDeleteThis is so irritating..OMG..ewwwww
ReplyDeleteWe have not finished building the 14 billion naira of the Vice President, you are talking about police college.
ReplyDeleteLet's hear word o jare.
We are on top of the situation.
I swear u haff killed me with laff......
DeleteThere are money allocated all the time for upkeep of these schools, even barracks, but trust me the "Ogas" pocket those money. It's always the poor and the juniors that suffers. There is no difference between what I am seeing here and the police barracks. Corruption in all levels in Nigeria. I don't know where we will start in Nigeria. Maybe if the entire generation is wiped out. God please have mercy!!!!
ReplyDeleteNigeria is a praying nation i love that. But Nigeria is also a stupid nation bcos nigeria pray about everthing.THings that common sense can work for they will say that they are praying.THe truth is the way Nigeria is going is can only get better in the next Life. Goodluck Mother fucker,Gorvernors idoit. Letrs imagine now music is also a good medium of reaching out to the government but its a lie all the muscian all they sing is stupid Azonto thats is from ghana. Imagine wizkid for making a track for the people and for peace and unit they will not.Well This police guys will come out and still be armed robbers...I wish i was from Niger I regret that i am a nigerian....I am sure Nigeria is the gate way to hell..... fuck naija goverment
ReplyDeleteThe condition of my country is something to be ashamed of. How do you expect something good to come out of this dungeon? Our armed forces should be enjoying more than the normal citizens so that they'll have a reason to serve this country well. This is sad. This is sad. I'm disappointed and some ppl are there using 3million naira to feed in a day :'(
ReplyDeleteShame on Nigeria...
ReplyDeleteOh well, wot can I say?.......irony is when the IG of police lives in style in an Abuja mansion and the very pple he leads have to suffer like this! Shameful. We do not need to curse anyone of the thieves in govt, they are cursed already for these evil acts against humanity.....bastards!
ReplyDeleteIt's funny but this really s life. Some of our own domestic helps live like this yet we pay them meagre salaries and all......
ReplyDeleteSo lets ACT and shame our leaders! Wat I suggest is dat LIB readers come togeda, donate money and renovate dis police college as an example, make sure it's aired on news channels and show our government dat we r ready to do something instead of just sitting down and just raining abuses while waiting for Linda to give us more news...? Wat says we? I'm serious about dis, it won't cost much believe me. If 300 of us donate like 1,000 naira at least each we r talking 300,000 naira already and I believe some of us can do better, wen we r done with it we can ask our government to follow suit....we can even go ahead and do dis with a Hospital. My people for us to bring change to Nigeria we need to start d changes ourselves cos our government has failed us, should we fail ourselves too?. Please ppl let's do dis do not ignore call to serve ur country.... Linda over to u.
ReplyDeleteSigned OnPoint!
I like dis suggestion o. So should we do it? I'm game!
DeleteI'm very sure that dis college "has been rebuilt or renovated and equipped with modern state of d art equipments" ON THE PAGES OF NEWSPAPERS as usual.This was as it is when Tafa Balogun stole billions and was only jailed 4 3 months.¶ cry 4 my Beloved Country
ReplyDeleteso Gov. Fashola isnt aware of this? what a foolish country.
ReplyDeleteLord have mercy,no offence meant,but its only an animal,that will see a place like this and still stay.its dehumanizing honestly and they don't fall ill? What's wrong with the navy or airforce? Free the problem for them,when no one comes for recruiting, they will work something out,no wonder 90% of police are dirty,scruffy and unkempt. The police women go dey do packaging. I d rather be jobless than be a police officer.
ReplyDeletemehn! now i can imagine where the nature of their insensitive behavior originates from....GOSH! 2UUUUUU BAD!
ReplyDeleteI quite appreciate CSR Channels TV is trying to do.But we should ask those past IGPs how much was voted for the renovation of the college for past 15yrs.If they can come out and say nothing was given then i could advice people to support the CSR but if it turned out that the past IGPs has been using the college as a funnel for personal enrichment then heads should roll at the ministry of police affairs.This is a complete disgrace to the nation.Those trainee should be moved to a hotel and the complete structures should be demolished.
ReplyDeleteit remind me of Federal Gorverment college port harcourt. My alma mata!
ReplyDeleteY won't theuy collect bribe! Dat's all dey'v been trained to do! Nonsense.
ReplyDeleteKudos should go to present IGP.I watched his interview on the above subject matters with Channels TV.How many IGP would allow his constituency to be exposed?He supported the exposure so that Nigerian would see how bad the police affairs has degenerated to and people to understand the quality of policing they are getting via-a-vis the input of training as a function of the output.I can assure you the fast response that will come from the Govt as result from this exposure.May God Almighty continue to strengthen and Bless and bestow more wisdom from the throne of grace to present IGP Abubakar.
ReplyDeleteLinda thanks for using your media might to help get the message out?
ReplyDeleteThis is despicable! I always weep and pray for Nigeria, but is that enough! Clearly not! Things are not changing, instead the situation worsens! When will our government learn that they get back what they put in. How can they ask the Police Force to operate with high standards if they are put in this mess initially?
I truly despair! I don't know about you all, but I feel so much pain and anguish, yet feel so helpless! If you try to solicit change in Nigeria you get bombarded by negativity, corruption, unethical offers, conflict, folk asking you to sell your conscience or face failure.
I guess this must look exactly like the Nigeria prisons too!!! So what Differentiate the prisons now from this Police Shit hole absolutely nuffin!!! Dat is the reason. Most of them are behind some terrible crimes in 9ja. Cuz they r bin trained as criminals not as police force
ReplyDeleteI hope this will change the perception of Nigerian populace towards the police, they are truly suffering; a big thank you to Mr John Momoh and his channels TV news crew for bringing this to light and for his assiduous effort to galvanize a support in reviving the police college from this deplorable condition:i hope the stakeholder especially the federal and state government will support this initiative. Linda thank you for your great effort in sharing this information.
ReplyDeleteWat a shameful eye sight its a pity thou
ReplyDeleteIf police college can be like this,just imagine how naija prison go be! To all my brothers planning to commit this year,think twice before you end up in an environmenT worse than this.
ReplyDeleteOfcourse after such an ordeal, who wouldn't extort money or engage in any kind of illegal arrangement jst to survive? For pete's sake!! They're given #150 a day,dats #50 a meal as said by their headmaster, #20 per bus on our roads is good money.. This is jst what we're told, who knws what their headmaster even earns as a salary..!! SMH tufia!!
ReplyDeleteFUCK OUR POLITICIANS!!!
ReplyDeleteNow i see why those police officers are always agressive. Fashola pls do smtin...
ReplyDeletei feel so sad right now.And i actually pass there everyday,and everything looks good from the outside.This country is finished.Where does the money go to?Why cant the government prioritize issues.Getting this place up to standard will breed better policemen and reduce a whole lot of abnormalities going on......Sad.
ReplyDeleteYoure so right.anyone conversant with that area will tell you how the recruits go out to fetch water for themselves and their masters from neighboring quarters outside the gates.u may weep when you see the saddening state of affairs.with their totally shaved hair( both male and female) and washed up white clothes.my father trained there in the late seventies and later worked there in the early nineties and he will tell you that nothing changed.all deteriorated.negative change though
DeleteNo wonder they come out and collect bribe left, right and center...this is a national disgrace.
ReplyDeleteThis is nothing short of WICKEDNESS,why are our leaders sp heartless?How can human beings subject fellow humans to this kind of life? Using bucke t to put food for mature adults,to crown it all watery soup with the head of fish! Haba!! The hostels no bunks for them to even lie down and sleep,no shutters fro the windows.I am ashamed of Nigeria.May God vent out his anger on those who divert the funds for the betterment of the poor masses for their own selfish use.Cry my beloved country!
ReplyDeleteMean while the IGs house in ikoyi and lekki,is like heaven,the ikoyi house is where his first born stays oh,am even going too far,minister of police affairs nko?that one is just building houses for his gfs,God help us in this nigeria
ReplyDeleteNo wonder we have animals on the street that will kill a civillian at the slightest provocation. They trained in a jungle.
ReplyDeleteThis exposé is good but knowing Nigeria, I pity the person that gave the channels crew the opportunity to film it. The police authorities will so deal with him... unless of course the IG is in the know and wants to use it to embarrass the political leadership into doing something...
ReplyDeleteMy God!!! what is this? how do they expect to train police in such deplorable conditions? why wont the force be filled with half baked, trigger happy police men. Goodness! and their IGs will be looting billions! this country is done for.
ReplyDeleteThis is disgraceful....i'm happy this pictures are in the open now. They (people in govt) think about the selves only. we shall leave dis earth someday and we wld hv to explain what we did for one anoda.. this is soooooo embarrassing.
ReplyDeleteIG pls ask ur men what is going on?????
This explains everything....why won't they come out and behave like animals when they are trained like wild animals.This is sad.Nigeria is a failed state i swear.
ReplyDeletethis is so pathetic, 50% of Nigerians live like this without hope and yet our leaders loot the treasury. Tell me why the youths won't be involved in illegal sturvs to make ends meet
ReplyDeleteI would rather carry gun and become an ARMED ROBBER than live here to become a wishie-washie police. God!!!!
ReplyDeleteIts to make them tough!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOD HELP NIGERIA...
ReplyDeleteI am speechless !!!!. THIS IS SIMPLY UNBELIEVABLE. God have mercy on us for our wickedness to our fellow men and women in this country.
ReplyDeleteDis is sooo nt it at all.......nd ppl stil go der o..naija hs misplaced all her priorities....lyk now dat dey say its by fire by force to spnd N60b buyin phones for farmers who say dey dnt nid phne buh funds nd equipmnt...our leaders are jus cncernd wit developin ways 2 loot mony....its jus too bad
ReplyDeletethat is why all of them are trained criminals!!! and vp sambo dey build billions of naira home nonsense!!! lets hope war doesn't befall our country soon :( Linda i am scared!
ReplyDeleteNigerians, we shud stop exclamating and stop calling jeez jeez and probably stop pouring out words cus it might get finished from d dictionary. Hw is des sectors goin here wid us, petroleum,power, agriculture,security, health, transport and name all oda system. What am saying is where are d men and women of age 60 above to ginja and tells us how tins was in dere own tym.we d youths are strongly behind these revolution that's on the way. So if u a politician or any gov corrupt official, get ready kus very soon u all will be collectively roasting in hot burners.
ReplyDeleteThe Leader of dis country needs to re-ajust there mind in doing things,just imaging the Police college,this is why the law enforcement were so currupt.God help us.Amen
ReplyDeleteIF A POLICE COLLEGE LOOKS LIKE THIS HOW WILL A PRISON OR DETENTION CELL BE? IS THIS A COUNTRY OR A JUNGLE? NO HUMAN BEING CAN COME OUT OF THIS TRAINING AND STILL HAVE A MODICUM OF MORALTY, DECORUM, CIVILITY, DECENCY OR SANITY. THEY ARE NOT TRAINING PEOPLE, THEY ARE DESTROYING THEIR HUMANITY!!!
ReplyDeleteI was in Nigeria 3yrs ago to get a Nigerian passport, here I was thinking their office in Ikoyi was like a boyscotter. The state of their desk, chairs, building was not a good site. And you still had this arrogant, selfish, inconsiderate staff, who are quite nasty. Forget customer service. I would have understood if i was told the country i was in was Congo,but this was GIANT of AFRICA, big oil producer.(by mouth). Anyway the Police College is in its on Premier league.
ReplyDeleteYou mean "boy's quarters" right?
DeleteBy virtue of this pictures, I hereby rename the police college Ikeja as Police REFUGEE camp Ikeja. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteChei, The Nigerian Police...I'm speechless. No one has mentioned this but we have the minister of police affairs. That ministry get allocation, what do they do with the money? Kai, how can people live like this? The beds are supported with bricks and the IG was nominated for Silverbird man of the year. Clueless government. I'm sure Nigerian Defence Academy is not any different cos I've passed by and it's nothing to write home about from the outside.
ReplyDeleteHey, I'm still shouting. N150 daily for what!!! If I were in their shoes, I won't collect N20 or N50, I'll collect N1000 or impound your vehicle. Aha aha......
I passed through the police college compound on my way home from school inthe early 80s, it was still ok then. Not great, as you still see the military equipment left by colonial masters still in there. But are we saying here all the Nigerian institutions are like that. The only exception is the airport and that is to deceive johnny foreigner that you in a cool country. All they do is borrow money to celebrate Independende day. 50th annivasary jamboree.
ReplyDeleteBig Shame
ReplyDeleteGod bless Channels TV for bringing this story to light. I've watched clips on Channels for a couple of days now and my heart just keeps breaking over and over again.
ReplyDeleteThere's more than enough money for them to fix this place up and still go on their stealing spree. Fixing the college is just a little drop in their sea of illegally stolen money.
I think our leaders are deranged.
Channels TV is organizing some sort of session to address this issue. Tune in on 22nd January to watch. I'm not too sure of the time now....7pm or 9pm
Gosh!!! This explains why they steal and take bribe,cos t
ReplyDeletehe enviroment has instilled in them a poverty and survival mentality..mtscheeeeew!!!
I dey help FG dey shame! Osenobulia!
ReplyDeletewill the people comparing this to orientation camps shut their mouths for goodness sakes?#noticemeattentionseeker!
ReplyDeletewe are talking about people living like animals from the beginning to the end of their career you are comparing it to orientation camps did you live like this all through your university?and are you compelled to be there without leaving or finding an alternative??
i think its high time those who are benefitting more from the police protection should step in and undertake this renovations…
if GLO takes up renovation of a few wings and then put their logo on it and MTN, and other companies do same with an agreement to repaint and maintain independent of the police or their contractors for their logo to be displayed on the building including a plaque showing they did the renovation this would go a long way in alleviating the plight of these officers..things can't continue in this way
And they spend billions on building a house for the VP... This should be get to CNN. The world should see this...
ReplyDeleteIf any of my relation ever wants join the police force,I 'd rather disown him immediately. what kinda country is dis?and he is there planting flowers around.
ReplyDeleteso so sad, but a lot better than NYSC camp if u ask me...what does that say of our nation?
ReplyDeleteA panel should be constituted to investigate this issue from the stand point of 1. human rights abuse 2. criminal endangerment of lives and most importantly, fraud, embezzlement and deceipt as a matter of law. The reason being that x amount of money is being budgted for this dungeon (college)every year and contracts are being awarded without wnything being done.
ReplyDeleteThe EFCC must get down and dirty on this one and make sure that all the monies that have been allocated for this thing made known to all Nigerians and who were responsible for this inhumane act.
Nigerians have to start somewhere and this is a prime example where to start. Please bring all the past IGs and commandants of this place to account for this embarrassment.
It is a sad sight. Successfully graduating from a pig sty tends to damage the thinking faculties of anyone.
ReplyDeleteAbeg Abeg Abeg. Everybody is forming this is so sad but those of us that attended boarding schools know better. at least this men are men. i was just 11 when I got admission to command secondary school Ipaja and I can assure you that the conditions u see in this pictures are exactly what command was like. yet nobody came to do an exposee on that stupid school and other boarding schl like that.
ReplyDeleteBill Gate or Oprah should buy Nigeria
ReplyDeleteLet's auction it off on Ebay to the highest bidder....
Nigeria needs to be re-colonised! We need leaders no older than 35 to bring common sense and decency to this country.
ReplyDelete...tears swelled up in my eyes.Totally unbelievable! Even animals are treated better!!! I mean i know things are difficult generally in Nigeria but this??? This reduces us to a war-torn country or a country in famine.
ReplyDelete...tears swelled up in my eyes.Totally unbelievable! Even animals are treated better!!! I mean i know things are difficult generally in Nigeria but this??? This reduces us to a war-torn country or a country in famine.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a big shame 9ja which way?? our leaders will only bleed us dry this is so sad and heart breaking what a country...
ReplyDelete@linda thanks for bring this to our knowledge
I totally agree with OnPoint's suggestion. All of us contributing N1000 for the renovation would make a huge difference instead of sitting down raining causes.
ReplyDeleteLets be the change we want for our nation just to prove to our useless leaders that tables are turning.
Linda lets do this!!
Ive worked in a zoo in United Kingdom..I swear animals live in better conditions
ReplyDeletenow i understand y they all behalf wild ad act weird..whoa.*pokaa*
ReplyDeleteAnd they were so proud about fixing up the airport. This is what needs to be fixed up! When you train for a career in a dump like this how can you be expected to do your work with pride? There are crack houses in better condition than this filthy hovel. Even barns for farm animals look better than this. Kudos to the station for bringing this to light! I hope thye do more like it.
ReplyDeleteOMG!(Crying) I am just speechless....
ReplyDeletetoo bad
ReplyDeleteAnd what is the head of police doing about it ehh? this is shocking no wonder police no sabi pass 20 naira bribe. now i get it. no wonder dem no dey hear please before dem shut. it's obvious they are being treated like animals hence dem dey pass the treatment also to innocent citizens smdh. let's watch and see watch and see what will happen now that it is in the openm mschew!!!! what a dead place
ReplyDelete*Linda. It all stems from our culture of begging for forgiveness. Buhari the former speaker of house of rep begged and we forgave him, Tafa begged/ Ibori begged/ Alams begged/the Lagos boy from PDP begged. Until we punish all the looters and put them in jail times that are appropriate for their crimes, Nigeria will not know peace. Let people account for their budgetary allocations and stpo cheating the masses
ReplyDeleteWhen I was watching the documentaries in the TV where 50 men divide 1 Fish for meal. Soup for these 50 grown up men was watery and can hardly feed 10 people - the first thing that came to my mind was that our prisoners are suffering badly and under a very severe inhumane condition. Behold, I was shocked to know that the place in that documentary is not a prison setting by a Police College!
ReplyDeleteTHIS PLACE WILL TRAUMATIZE YOU,RATHER THAN TRAIN YOU...SMH FOR NIGERIA
ReplyDeleteThe present I.G definitely know about the deplorable condition of the police college even before he became the I.G.He has served as C.P in Lagos. You can't train people under this condition and you expect them to turn out good.Even animals should not be kept this way.Now that the President is aware, something should be urgently done.The President should please monitor every kobo he intends to use in upgrading the college.God help us in this country.

ReplyDeleteI don't understand why people r soo shocked . Mate this is Nigeria not London so expect anything , a lot of places in Nigeria look like that so i don't understand why people r acting as if Nigeria is a developed place . Yes it is appalling but please don't try and act as if Nigeria is some place that everything is in proper order . There is still a long way to go
ReplyDeleteHehehehe!!! Naija is a wonderful place
ReplyDeleteThe country is a zoo.
ReplyDeleteWhat is so surprising. Don't most Nigerians live like this. Check out those who live in bachas. Truth of the matter is we are a dirty people. When we see filth we don't even notice it any more. Our markets where we buy the foods we eat are the filthiest places. So what's so unusual about the police college.
ReplyDeleteCarry on Channels. I guess this is the only to expose the government of Nigeria to the World
