Three police officers have been fired by the Nigeria Police Force for misconduct, abuse of authority, gross indiscretion, and the waste of live ammunition.

The three officers—Inspector Dahiru Shuaibu, Sgt. Abdullahi Badamasi, and Sgt. Isah Danladi—were assigned to escort Kano-based musician Dauda Kahutu, also known as Rarara, and while performing their duties on Friday, April 7, 2023 at Kahutu village in Katsina State, they repeatedly fired shots from their service weapons into the air in violation of police policy against doing so
According to reports, Rarara has become a staple of the All Progressives Congress (APC)’s (the party in power) presidential campaign rallies since 2015.

The act, according to the Force’s spokesperson, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, was not only illegal and improper but also embarrassing for the Force and the entire country.

He added that the action was taken in response to complaints and findings on video evidence that were made against the policemen from Special Protection Unit (SPU) Base 1 in Kano and widely shared on social media on Friday, April 7, 2023, as well as a subsequent orderly room trial of the affected policemen by the Force Provost Marshal.
The Nigeria Police Force also warned all officers to ensure they carry out their duties in line with the extant laws to avoid running foul of its provisions and attracting attendant sanctions.
