A video showing some officers of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) lining up to receive N5,000 cash from Chinese nationals has surfaced on social media.
In the less than two-minute video, a male Chinese national is seen distributing N5,000 cash to the police officers who lined up to receive the money.
Later on, the male Chinese national called upon his female counterpart to continue the distribution of cash to the police officers.
In the video, the police officers could be seen smiling and responding with “thank you” after receiving the cash.

During the distribution of cash to the officers, some Chinese nationals at the scene were using their phones to record the moment.
TheCable cannot independently confirm the location where the video was taken.
However, the emblem on the officers’ outfits indicates that they are men of the Nigeria police.

Commenting on the incident, Omoyele Sowore, presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) in the 2023 election, said the officers were reduced to nobody due to their “greed and indiscipline”.
These are shameful acts by men of the MOPOL 1 of @PoliceNG in Kaduna, they’re reduced to nobody because of greed and indiscipline. This is why I keep saying Illegal IGP Kayode Egbetokun must leave the police force and let fresh hands run the Nigeria Police Force. It is the shame… pic.twitter.com/OyOz1SqaR6

I don’t blame them because they’re hungry and have kids to take care of, the illegal IGP and his mad watchdog called @Princemoye1 have reduced them to zero. No dignity no integrity just ordinary men carrying arms but with zero manners
