Protests At Police College As Officer Dies During Training
The Acting Inspector General of Police, Abba Suleiman’s wish to give the force a good image suffered a setback some days ago when an ugly trend amongst the rank and file of the force reared its ugly head again leading to the death of an officer.
Paper Mache gathered that a section of Junior Officers were undergoing the mandatory promotional course at the Police College in Ikeja, Lagos when an officer, Sergeant Mustapha Olalekan slumped and died on the parade ground.
It was revealed that the incident ignited protests from the colleagues of the deceased who felt there was no adequate provision to prevent such occurrence during the practice.
Some of these officers who spoke with Paper Mache under the condition of anonymity disclosed that they have camped at the college for two weeks without the payment of their course allowance which was said to have been paid by the Force Headquarters in Abuja.
The officers stated that they endured 6-hours rigorous daily field exercise in the rain and the sun and that consideration was not given to their female counterparts who are mainly married women and mothers.
The daily drilling was said to have been without health provision as there was no ambulance to convey any injured officer to the hospital and it was revealed that a number of officers fainted during the exercise which later sparked off the protest after the death of Sergeant Lekan Mustapha.
The course masters who are mostly superior officers were said to be in the habit of demanding bribes from the junior officers to pass and ease them from the daily stress that comes with the exercise.
The protest was said to have been muffled by the threat of dismissal on any officer caught doing so.
While many of the officers dread the outcome of what the protest might be the family of the deceased officer who was said to have carried out a post mortem that showed that the officer died from fatigue caused by the training have threatened to seek legal action against the Nigerian Police.

All The Shocking Details As PDP Declares Adedamola Osun Flagbearer, Beats Gov Adeleke in Tense Primary
In a dramatic twist that has sent shockwaves through Osun’s political landscape, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has declared Hon. Adebayo Adedamola as its governorship flagbearer after a fiercely contested primary that saw him defeat incumbent Governor Ademola Adeleke.
The keenly watched primary, held amid heavy security and intense party interest, drew party delegates from across the state. What many expected to be a smooth victory for the governor turned into a tightly fought race, with Fryo gaining momentum during delegate consultations and strategic bloc alignments.
According to party officials, Fryo clinched the majority of valid votes after what they described as a transparent, credible, and highly competitive exercise. His supporters erupted in celebration as the final tally was announced, chanting solidarity songs and hailing what they called “a new direction for Osun PDP.”
Adedamola, popularlcy called Fryo is said to be a close ally of APC stalwart, Iyiola Omisore. Fryo was among the people arrested over the killing of late Attorney General, Chief Bola Ige.
Political analysts say the upset signals a significant shift within the party’s power structure, as the result reflects growing agitation for fresh leadership and a repositioning of the party’s influence across local government blocs.
Governor Adeleke, who had sought the party’s ticket to secure a second term, was said to have congratulated Fryo in a closed-door exchange, though members of his camp are still digesting the unexpected outcome.
Fryo, in his acceptance speech, promised to unify the party, consolidate on its achievements, and present a formidable front ahead of the general elections. He described his victory as “a mandate for renewal” and urged party faithful to rally behind him for what he termed the decisive battle ahead.
With this development, all eyes are now on how the PDP navigates the post-primary atmosphere and prepares for a heated governorship election season in Osun State.
