  • A pro-Biafra agitator, Simon Ekpa, has posted a video alongside claim that some men of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) generally assault their female colleagues. The post published on X platform on September 26, 2024 read: This is what the Nigeria terrorist @PoliceNG are doing to their female colleagues. After overdose of drugs they will rape and kill anyone available. In the over one-minute video attached to the post, a female officer was lamenting the way she was maltreated by a male superior. READ: Claim by Simon Ekpa that Nigerian govt sponsored attack against Christians in Zamfara is MISLEADING! Part of the footage’s audio transcribed read thus: …What is my offence, he now started beating me, to the extent that he naked me he put me into naked look at all my chest, my hand everywhere injured… It is Ajayi Matthew because he asked me to friend him, I said no I am a married woman, I cannot befriend you. he started blackmailing me saying he is the one befriending me, which is not true. My right hand was there. Two Constables and 10 civilians; after doing that, he went inside and carried a dane gun and said he wanted to gun me down. The civilians had to take me out of the office and said I should run away but I said no. If he wants to kill me, he should kill me. Help me. Assist me. Ajayi wants to kill me. Ode-Omu Division. The video post has garnered over 140,000 views, more than 2,400 reposts and over 3,100 likes as of September 29, 2024. CLAIM Video shows a female police officer allegedly assaulted by her superior recently. THE FINDINGS Findings by The FactCheckHub show that the claim is MISLEADING, as the video is not recent. A keyframe analysis conducted on the video shows earlier versions of the video published on Facebook and X. The footage was from an incident in 2022 when a female Nigerian police officer, Bamidele Olorunsogo, claimed that she was tortured by her superior, Ajayi Matthew, the Divisional Crime Officer of Ode-Omu Police Division, in Osun state after she refused his romantic advances toward her. The video was published by multiple media platforms including The Punch and Sahara reporters in November 2022. The Punch and The Cable reported that the IGP had ordered a probe on the matter and waiting for the report of the investigation from the Osun State Police Command before necessary actions would be taken then.

THE VERDICT The claim that the video shows a female police officer allegedly assaulted by her superior recently is MISLEADING; the incident took place in 2022. Seasoned fact-checker and researcher Fatimah Quadri has written numerous fact-checks, explainers, and media literacy pieces for The FactCheckHub in an effort to combat information disorder.
