Responding to the post however, Adejobi said contrary to what he wrote, the police hierarchy always issues uniforms and other kits to all its personnel, adding that the officers can buy more on their own.
He wrote: “Police issues kits and uniforms to its personnel regularly, even with the large number. If anyone wants to get additional kits, it’s not out of place.
“So seeing policemen getting additional kits is allowed, and doesn’t suggest the force doesn’t supply kits. Let’s be educated and guided about it. Thanks.”
The media have reported how some policemen have insisted that they used to buy their own uniforms and other kits. They however did not say if those kits and uniforms are addition to what the police hierarchy issued them.
