Many damning allegations have been made against this same super cop recently yet not even a single strand of hair on his head was touched by the Authority.

If he’s found guilty which we know he would because he’s a corrupt super-fraud, let him willingly do the time so that this will serve as a deterrent to other public office holders and corrupt politicians in Nigeria.
