POLICE DENY REPORT ON ALLEGED CERTIFICATE FORGERY AGAINST GOV. AIYEDATIWA.

Babatunji Wusu –

The Nigeria Police said it is unaware of a document purportedly containing the findings of an investigation into the alleged certificate forgery case against Ondo State Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa.
Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the Force Public Relations Officer, issued the denial in a statement on Friday in response to the alleged document in circulation, which purports to contain the findings of an inquiry into allegations against Governor Aiyedaiwa.

According to Adejobi, the claimed signatory of the document, a Deputy Commissioner of Police, lacks the jurisdiction to release such a report on behalf of the Force Criminal Investigation agency, FCID, or any other agency within the Nigeria Police Force.

He, therefore, dissociated the Police entirely from the document.

“The Nigeria Police Force is currently investigating the origin of the said document and the circumstances surrounding its circulation. We urge the public to exercise caution and refrain from spreading unverified information that could potentially tarnish the reputation of individuals or public officials.

“Furthermore, we assure the public that any official communication or report regarding investigations conducted by the Nigeria Police Force will be released through appropriate channels,” the Police PRO stated.
