Daddy Showkey condemns suspension of police officers in TikTok video

Veteran musician, Daddy Showkey, has criticised the Nigeria Police over the suspension of two female supernumerary officers in a viral TikTok video.

Qed.ng reported that the officers, Obaze Blessing and Obaze Emmanuella Uju, were suspended on Friday for misconduct and violation of social media policy.

Reacting, in an Instagram post on Saturday, Daddy Showkey said the suspension was uncalled for.

According to him, the female officers in the viral Tik Tok video were trying to make the police force look interesting as most youths are not “interested in joking about the force because many officers have demonised the force”.

He said: “What did these ladies do that is wrong? Sometimes we take action because we want to show we’re in a position of authority.

Our young people are not interested in joking about the police force because many officers have demonised the force.

“People are afraid when they see policemen and can’t even approach them when they have problems.

“These two ladies are trying to make the police interesting. They are trying to make people realise the force is not bad. I feel the suspension is uncalled for.”
