An Assistant Commissioner of Police in Lagos, Abayomi Shogunle has declared a Yoruba Woman wanted after she appeared in a viral video stealing at a party.

Just some few days back, the video of the woman surfaced on the internet and she could be seen pilfering some party items and stuffing them into her bag while at a party.

Although, the video appeared staged as some social media users suggest, the Senior Police officer in Lagos has declared the woman wanted.

He wrote on Twitter:

WANTED PERSON Please help me find this Yoruba woman. If your tip leads to her apprehension, I have a cash reward for you.

The officer was however castigated by some of his followers over the use of the word Yoruba Woman as well as the way he personalized the arrest. The post was considered tribalistic by a user who expressed his dissatisfaction over the officer's use of the phrase.

Some of his followers questioned his integrity and on what grounds is he making the arrest. As a Police officer or as a Private Investigator?

Yomi Shogunle, though have given insights into some issues regarding policing in Nigeria in time past, but he is considered not fit by majority of his followers who feel his posts on social media are rather unprofessional and controversial and do not portray him as professional Police Officer.

smh.. See the future generations we are breeding...Imagine headlines declares yoruba woman wanted...Soon all Nigerians will be living like Afghans and talibans,israelis and Pakistanis..Smh vigorously

I am quite sure that woman is a member of PDP, they are the ones known for theft.

This is not professional,the woman in question can sue him

Jobless Police man. Is it your wedding.....i guess if any has the right to sue her is the Bride and the Groom.

This guy needs suspension

dis kuntri ehn

.

sue ke..a thief suing an officer of the law tasked with the protecting lives and also preventing cases like hers..biko just keep quiet if u cannot add anything meaningful to these thread.

Baawaa:

Ayam confused oo. Is she not a yoruba woman??

Typical Nigerian Police and their unintelligence.

You see a woman wearing Aso Ebi from CCTV and already assumed she's Yoruba, whereas she might be from any part of Nigeria, but the dullard has already narrowed down his investigation to one tribe making it highly impossible to apprehend the suspect if she were from another tribe.

I'm not surprised sha. Any guy with dreadlocks or earring is a yahoo boy or criminal to them, that's why they never catch the real thieves...

Yoruba Man dey tribalistic to Yoruba woman?
Smh

Baawaa:

On what basis would she bring her suit??

I wonder if there would have been any backlash if he referred to another ethnic tribe.

Would there?

He is just properly describing her shu

Afonja woman

What is wrong in what he said
Is she not a Yoruba woman
Is she not a Yoruba woman thief

Am i the only one that doesn't find the phrase"Yoruba woman" tribalistic??
Or is there another way y'all are reading the phrase

delzbaba:
This guy needs suspension

They should post him to Bama.

Police is regardless in caution of why the woman in question is a Yoruba

Wow

What gives him the impression that the woman in question is a Yoruba woman? I didn't hear her conversing or doing anything that points to her being Yoruba. The police officer needs to go on a human relations training asap

delzbaba:
This guy needs suspension

Why?

delzbaba:
This guy needs suspension

Why?

Hahahahahahahahahaha.
Some yorubas on NL may drink herbicide today o.
The woman in question, is she not a YORUBA woman? The policeman in question, is he not a YORUBA man? So what's up with the tribalistic accusation? If it was an igbo lady and the Yomi points it out, would the yorubas on this forum come to our aid and join us in crying foul? Mba nu! The only thing they would do, is call NCAN and spam the thread with "Igbo amaka and igbo ajoka".
Learn to accept the truth and carry your burden without sentiments. With that said; Afonja Amaka.

Nonsense, please help the police locate that Yoruba Woman Come and beat me. Ndi ofe mmanu

the internet will be upside down now if he had mentioned igbo woman

Jobless man
Wetin e Dey find for social media
When your village people are at work you go Dey go where you no suppose talk dey talk rubbish dere...

I don't know if this is professional, I sometimes read something like "A French man name blablabla is wanted " in international news.

Im tired abeg. is he nt yoruba and is d woman nt yoruba. ppl will just be spewing trash. tribalistic to ur own tribe? im weak.

I condemned his use of word in declaring d woman wanted. If it where to be another tribe,most of us that are tribal beggot will not c anything wrong with d statement.say no to tribalism
