Assistant Inspector-General of Police in charge of Zone 2, Mbu Joseph Mbu, yesterday urged the Federal High Court in Lagos not to order his sack.
He denied ordering his men to kill 20 civilians for every policeman killed during the general elections.
Mbu, in a counter-affidavit to a suit by a Lagos lawyer, Tope Alabi, denied ever making such a statement.
He said he only ordered that any policeman shot at by any person should defend himself.
In the counter-affidavit deposed to on his behalf by a policeman, Olugbemiga Adeoye, Mbu said the media reports were “complete falsehood, exaggerated, twisted and totally quoted out of context.”
Adeoye, who said he was at the briefing where Mbu allegedly made the statement, said: “The true position is that the first defendant (Mbu), during his official tours and briefing of police officers at Lagos and Ogun State Commands, directed every police officer to be law abiding, hardworking and wake up to their constitutional/statutory duties and respect to every citizens’ legal rights in the course of performance of their duties and that any policeman shot by any person, that such policeman could shoot back in self defence.”
Yesterday, Alabi’s lawyer Mr Femi Falana (SAN), moved the originating summons and urged the court to grant the prayers sought.
The zone’s Officer-in-Charge, Legal, Chukwu Agwu, urged the court to dismiss the suit with substantial cost.
He urged the court not to rely on newspaper publications tendered as exhibit because they contained unverifiable facts, and were not certified.

The plaintiff is praying the court to strip Mbu of his rank and declare his office vacant for allegedly abusing his powers.
He is praying the court to direct Inspector-General of Police Suleiman Abba, the Police Service Commission and the Attorney-General of the Federation, Mohammed Adoke (SAN) (who are the second to fourth defendants) to declare Mbu’s office vacant and replace him without further delay.
Alabi said Mbu, as a senior police officer, swore to uphold the rule of law and abide by the Constitution, but has allegedly been behaving as if he is above the law.
The latest of Mbu’s action, the lawyer said, is his directive to policemen under his Zone 2 Command covering Lagos and Ogun States, ”If one of my men is killed, I shall kill 20 of them but don’t shoot first,” Mbu was quoted as saying.
Alabi is praying the court to determine whether Mbu is fit and proper to remain in office, considering his controversial utterances and “his public misconduct,” and whether the lives of Nigerians are not in danger as long as Mbu remains in office.
The plaintiff urges the court to hold that Mbu’s threat as widely reported in the news media is ultra vires (beyond his powers) and therefore, in breach of Section 308 (1) (b) of the 1999 Constitution.

Welcome to Lagos.

We don't play here

hmm . The plaintiff will have to provide concrete evidence of AIG Mbu making that alleged statement.Even without that, the record of this court case against him is bad for his career. He didn't even deny the statement until he realized the enormity of that alleged reckless statement.

South west is not the wild wild west.

No wonder he has been quiet after he was charged to court. Lol

Mbu this is Lagos & not PH where we have sound & intelligent people they will surely put you to where you belong, asked the cabals backing Turai during Yar'adua saga the heat they received from SW which pave way for the clueless one.

MBU the hardman

Mbu is such a gentleman in uniform...only 20 APC thugs for one police man? Wow...He is such a gentleman. Mbu for President after GEJ in 2019.

Oh boi, this police guy can lie! You didn't say What!?

lol

WTF

[size=18pt]Honestly i think this man should be sacked. Ever since he was deployed in lagos, the security has become worse and porous. There had been 2 successful robberies in less than a month and political thugs fighting in oshodi and other parts of lagos. He has not ordered any high profile arrest nor prosecute any one.

Mbu is just a partisan police who is deployed by his pay masters to intimidate the opposition. He doesn't give a damn about the safety of the common man [/size]

That man is being plagued. Wherever He goes there's mayhem. Just almost immediately the robbery incident, and other criminal activities, now this
