Nigeria: Activist Raises Alarm Over Alleged Police 'Abduction,' Extortion of N1.1million
A Nigerian activist is sounding the alarm after police allegedly abducted and extorted N1.1 million from a victim, adding to a mounting pattern of brutality and shakedowns by officers. The case underscores what critics say is a crisis of accountability within the Nigeria Police Force, where dismissals and sanctions have failed to curb extrajudicial abuse. Despite repeated crackdowns, reports of police extortion and killings continue to surface across the country.
