Human rights lawyer Inibehe Effiong has strongly criticized Inspector-General of Police Olatunji Disu’s call for restraint in filming police officers.
Effiong stated that Nigerians have a constitutional right to record officers on duty, countering the IGP’s concerns about being filmed.
The lawyer argued that the IGP’s comparison to court filming rules was a “false equivalent,” emphasizing that citizens should continue recording unprofessional police conduct.
