TWO PERSONS THAT MUST REPORT EVERY ARREST MADE IN EACH
STATE IN NIGERIA AND TO WHOM.

Every quarter in a year, the Commissioner of Police (CoP) on one
hand and the other heads of every other security agency in any
state in Nigeria on the other hand, must prepare their separate
reports on record of all arrests made in the state with or without
warrant in relation to state offences or arrests within the State.
The reports must be submitted to the Attorney General of the
State.
The reports must contain full particulars of the arrested persons
showing; alleged offence, date and circumstances of arrest, full
name, occupation and residential address as well as height,
photograph, full fingerprint impressions and any other means of
identification.
Note that failure to comply or discharge responsibility without
reasonable cause must be treated as misconduct by the appropriate
authority.

My authorities are sections 15, 29(2), 491, 494 and 495 of the
Administration of Criminal Justice Act, 2015 and other similar laws
across States in Nigeria.
