Lagos State Police Command has
uncovered a fake Facebook account bearing the name of its Commissioner of
Police, CP Kayode Aderanti.
The account in question which is “CP
Kayode Aderanti” was recently introduced by one shadowy character as the
authentic Facebook account of the Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command
to members of the Social Network with the intention of giving the impression
that images being displayed and comments from this fraudulent account are made
by the reputable Commissioner of Police Lagos State.
For the avoidance of doubt, the
Commissioner of Police Lagos State Command, CP. Kayode Aderanti does not in any
way operate a Facebook account (either official or private).
Therefore, the Commissioner of
Police advises all members of the public and in particular Facebook users to
ignore the said account as it does not belong to him.
Consequently, any correspondence or
exchange of messages on the page has nothing to do with the Commissioner of
Police Lagos State Command or any officer of the Nigeria Police Force at large.
We therefore advise the general
public to disregard any comments, solicitations and approaches from this
account as it is certainly not operated by CP Kayode Aderanti or any of his
officers.
While efforts are being made to
apprehend the character (s) behind this fraudulent act, let me assure the
general public of the resolve of the Lagos State Command to sustain the tempo
of crime fighting to ensure that Lagosians and all others who have cause
to come to Lagos enjoy a conducive environment for business and leisure.
