Police Warn Officers Against Misconduct, Citing #EndSARS Aftermath

The Nigeria Police Force has issued a strong directive warning officers to cease arbitrary arrests, phone seizures, and unnecessary detentions at checkpoints, with severe penalties awaiting violators.
The memo, signed by the Department of Operations at the Force Headquarters, referenced the 2020 #EndSARS protests as a stark reminder of the devastating consequences of police misconduct, which led to loss of lives, destruction, and a deep erosion of public trust.
The directive stressed that command commissioners and supervisors would be held accountable for any violations, with monitoring units deployed to ensure compliance.
This move comes days after UK Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch accused the Nigerian police of corruption, claiming officers stole her brother’s shoe and wristwatch, further sparking discussions on police abuse in the country.

WAEC Says English Exam Was Not Cancelled and Warns Against Fake News

WAEC has debunked rumours that the English Language paper written on May 28 was cancelled. The exam, part of the ongoing WASSCE for school candidates, faced serious delays at several centres across the country. In some places, the paper meant to start by 9 a.m. didn’t begin until late at night, leaving students to write under poor conditions, with many using phone flashlights and torchlights to read their questions.
WAEC explained that it received reports of a possible paper leak and had to act fast to protect the credibility of the exam. But contrary to claims making rounds on social media, the council made it clear the paper was not cancelled. In a statement by Moyosola Adesina, the acting Head of Public Affairs, WAEC said a press release dated May 30 announcing the cancellation was fake and not from the council.
She said WAEC doesn’t know where the false information came from, but suspects it was shared by individuals trying to create panic and damage the council’s image. The Head of WAEC’s National Office, Amos Dangut, also commented on the situation, saying the late-night exams held in some areas were far below the council’s standards.
