"DON'T ALLOW POLICEMEN TO CHECK YOUR PHONE, ITS YOUR PRIVATE PROPERTY" - POLICE PRO

Posted by on

For a long time, Nigerians have asked if it’s right for police officer to search your mobile phones during a routing stop and search exercise on the road. Now, the Lagos State Police PRO, Dolap Badmus in a Chat with Linda Ikeji TV has shed more light on the issue saying it is wrong.


In her words,

‘Your phone is private, it’s your private property because people do alot of private stuffs on their mobile phones so it’s wrong. Police officers have no right to do that except there is a reasonable ground to do so’.

FOR WOMEN: TEN WAYS TO ERADICATE VAGINA ODOR

Vaginal odor is a health issue affecting many women. It’s both unpleasant and embarrassing, and it can seriously undermine a woman’s self-esteem. It normally results from a vaginal yeast infection, although oftentimes the cause may be something else.
