The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) is preparing to roll out body cameras for its officers, a step aimed at fostering greater accountability and professionalism. Muyiwa Adejobi, the Force Public Relations Officer, made this announcement during an appearance on Channels Television’s The Morning Brief. He highlighted that the initiative aligns with global best practices and is intended to enhance the relationship between officers and the public by ensuring greater transparency.
This initiative is part of a wider effort to modernize police operations and rebuild public trust, especially in the wake of recent allegations of misconduct by some officers. The body cameras will enable real-time recording of interactions, providing valuable evidence to resolve complaints and improve overall operational standards.
Additional details about the rollout and implementation timeline will be shared in the near future.
