Do Not Plant Negative Seeds in The Minds of Little Children, Force Public Relations CSP Adejobi Cries Out.
By Gbemiga Olamikan
The Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, has reacted to a viral video were a father was castigating and presenting police profession as bad profession and turning mind of his daughter against Police Officers.
The little girl wishes to be a police officer but the father warned her against the profession.
CSP Adejobi said the continual negative portrayals of agencies of government, particularly to little ones in their formative ages could engender baseless hatred and antagonism against lawful institutions in the mind of children, even as they grow up.
Adejobi made particular reference to a video which trended recently where a man constantly rebuffed his daughter’s career choice to be a Police Officer.
He said policing is a noble profession and the fact that some individuals infuse their nefarious intentions and activities should not deter but rather encourage noble individuals to join up and serve diligently and honourably.
The Force PRO Adejobi, acknowledged that generally, security operatives are our Guardian Angels who have continually shown interest and put in their best to defend the country and protect lives and property as enshrined in the extant laws of the land. He urged members of the public to do everything possible to encourage them, not to castigate them.
Force PRO Adejobi however, reiterated the commitment of the current administration of the Force, under the leadership of IGP Usman Alkali Baba to rid the system of recalcitrant officers and urge all stakeholders in security management, particularly members of the public, to support the Police in its quest to improve on policing services in the country.
