Inspector Adebisi Adenusi, an officer of the Nigeria Police Force, was dismissed from the service and spent 86 days in detention for making a comment in a WhatsApp group chat calling for improved welfare for police personnel.
Adenusi, who had served in the Force for 23 years, was attached to the Ekiti State Police Command before his arrest in June 18, 2025.
Meanwhile, his ordeal began after he reportedly suggested in a WhatsApp group that police officers consider embarking on a strike to demand better welfare packages for both serving and retired personnel, a post he immediately deleted.
Unbeknownst to him, someone had already taken a screenshot of the comment and forwarded it to the higher authorities.
Shortly afterward, Adenusi was summoned to the Ekiti State Police Headquarters, where he was arrested before being transferred to Abuja.
The Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, under whose leadership the incident occurred, authorised disciplinary proceedings against Adenusi and several others who were picked up for similar comments.
The officers were initially detained for 17 days before being arraigned in an orderly room trial.
On July 10, the trial concluded with Adenusi’s dismissal from the Force.
However, despite the formal dismissal, he remained in custody for weeks afterwards, bringing his total detention period to 86 days before he was finally granted bail.
Meanwhile, his prolonged confinement, even after losing his position, has raised concerns about due process and the treatment of officers who voice welfare-related grievances.
The welfare of police officers has long been a contentious issue in Nigeria, with reports of inadequate salaries, poor retirement benefits, and limited support systems for officers injured or killed in the line of duty.
Calls for reforms have intensified in recent months, with Nigerian human rights activist, Omoyele Sowore, and retired officers joining the demand.
However, disciplinary actions against outspoken officers have raised fears of a culture of silence within the Force.
Earlier, SaharaReporters reported that a Magistrate Court sitting in Wuse, Abuja, has granted bail to Inspector Adebiyi Adenusi, a 48-year-old police officer who has been in detention since June 23 at the Force Intelligence Department (FID).
Inspector Adenusi, attached to the Ekiti State Police Command until his arrest and detention, was arraigned before Magistrate Court 2 on charges of sedition linked to a police protest.
