Police inspector responds to distress call, but ends up committing murder at scene!

The Commissioner of Police in Lagos State, Umar Manko, has announced the arrest of a Police Inspector for allegedly killing a man with his official rifle.

Mr. Manko made the disclosure in Lagos when  he met with the  newly-elected  officers of  the Crime Reporters Association of Nigeria (CRAN) on Friday.

The police commissioner said the suspect allegedly went for a distress call, but later committed the crime under unprofessional circumstances.

“We are not interested in what led to the distress call. But we are interested in the fact that a life was lost in the incident. The Inspector acted unprofessionally.

“He has spent 28 years in the Force, so he should have been more careful.

“Right now, he has been arrested and transferred to the State CID, Panti for investigation.

“He will be prosecuted for murder,’’ Mr. Manko who said he was ready to expose and deal with any police officer found wanting in the discharge of his duties said.

Until his arrest, the police inspector was attached to the Elere Police Division in Lagos State.

Meanwhile, Manko has emphasised the need for a level playing field for the police and journalists reporting crime to interact and exchange views as partners in the fight against crime.

The police commissioner decried speculations in reporting crime, saying journalists on the crime beat should try to cross check their facts before going to press with their stories.

“Let us be objective in our reportage. Let us build on the good relationship we share.

“If I do anything wrong and you publish it, I have no problem with that. But I will not be happy about outright falsehood,’’ he said.

Manko then congratulated the new officers of CRAN, asking them to help ensure a better  working relationship.

“As long as I remain here as police commissioner, I will continue to partner with CRAN,’’ he said.

Earlier, the CRAN Chairman, Christopher Oji, had said he and his team were in Manko’s office to introduce the new executive committee members to him.

“We are also here to intimate you with our yearly programmes,’’ he said.

Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry Grace the June Issue of ESSENCE!

We all need somebody to lean on — even Oprah Winfrey.

In the June 2013 issue of ESSENCE magazine, cover stars Winfrey and Tyler Perry describe the ways they've helped and inspired each other through the years — a friendship and partnership that has culminated in a TV deal giving Winfrey exclusive rights to broadcast all the original shows written, directed and produced by Perry this year and ever after.

"We both know how rare this is," says Oprah. "Where else in the history of our African-American culture have two really, really successful people who can do whatever they want said, 'Let’s come together and be even more powerful—let’s take it to the tenth power?'"

On mixing their friendship with business, Perry adds, “…The most important thing about coming together was making sure we would not lose our friendship because of the business. We had to establish ground rules. The main one: Both of us have to continue to live in our truth. If she doesn’t like something, say it. If I don’t like something, I’ll say it. And we’ll figure it out and keep moving on…”

For Perry, working with Oprah on new OWN shows like the drama The Haves and the Have Nots (premiering May 28) and the sitcom Love Thy Neighbor (May 29) “challenged me to push myself in terms of my writing and level of thinking,” he says. “I’m hoping that the energy of our coming together will go out to other people.”
