The command’s position was reported by Punch Nigeria, which provided no further details in the supplied material about the allegation, its origin or any evidence cited by either side.
The Rivers State Police Command has rejected allegations of land grabbing involving the state’s Commissioner of Police, Olugbenga Adepoju. In a statement reported by Punch Nigeria, the command described the claims as false and misleading. The supplied report does not identify the person or group that made the allegations.
It also does not provide details of the land at issue, the circumstances behind the accusation or any evidence presented in support of it. The police command’s response, as summarised by Punch, is the only position included in the available material. The allegation concerns Adepoju in his capacity as Rivers State commissioner of police.
No response from the commissioner personally, or from any other party, is included in the supplied information. The command’s denial therefore places the dispute at the level of a rejected allegation, without further details available here about possible proceedings or next steps.
