In a micro-blogging post, Nigeria Police Public Relations Officer working under Lagos State, Dolapo Badmus reaffirms to the youths that when a police officer stops them for a search or interrogation, it only helps to remain calm.
However, the believe that anyone who has tattoo on the body or dreadlocks on the head doesn’t automatically make the person a criminal, although an officer can be forced to interrogate anyone like that.
Dolapo simplifies it that such person should resist the intimidation of any law enforcer who wants to use that as basis to terrorize him by remaining calm, firm, courteous and insisting on not being a criminal for having that.
Check her post below;
“As expected questions were asked on why bearers of tattoos and dreadlocks were always subject of harassment and intimidation from the law enforcers.? Various rational suspected to may have been the cause were discussed.
HAVING TATTOO ON YOUR BODY OR DREADLOCKS ON YOUR HEAD DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY MAKE YOU A CRIMINAL. Resist the intimidation of any law enforcer who wants to use that as basis to terrorize you by remaining calm, firm, courteous and insisting on not being a criminal for having that.”
