According to the IGP, the investigation was to ascertain whether
the image was a photoshop or otherwise. He added that the outcome
of the investigation and appropriate actions will be made known to
the public.

TheNigerialawyer (TNL), recalls that two police officers have
been sighted in a three-man photo displaying the 4+4 symbol.

In a post made by a concerned Nigerian, the attention of the
Nigerian Police was drawn to the photo, calling for the appropriate
authorities to relieve the affected officers of their duty. The
call was made considering the fact that men of the Nigerian Police
and other Security agencies ought to be neutral.

and Forensic Unit of @PoliceNG to investigate
the authenticity of this photo, to ascertain whether it’s real or
photo-shopped. The outcome of the investigation and appropriate
