The Divisional Police Officer, DPO, in charge of Ikenne Division area of Ogun State, Patrick Onwu, who beat up a female traffic warden for flagging down his private car at the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC filling station, IBB Boulevard, Abeokuta, last week has been demoted.
According to PM News, the Inspector General of Police, Solomon Arase, on Thursday ordered his demotion and immediate transfer of the DPO.
Patrick Onwu, last Wednesday went wild and beat a female traffic officer, Inspector Anifat Bello to coma for allegedly stopping his private vehicle.
According to reports, the DPO was on mufti and had allegedly disobeyed the traffic law.
He allegedly pounced on the traffic warden, Inspector Anifat Bello, who was discharging her official duty.
According to eyewitnesses, he beat her to coma.
He then drove his car into a nearby filling station, FATGBEMS, also along the road, parked his vehicle and changed into his uniform.
It was learnt that Anifat Bello been severally honored for her dedication to duty.
She has to resign and sue d idiot. D IG is a stupid coward. And a political slave. I guess he shld b reading this. The IG should resign. She is somebody’s wife. And was performing her lawful duty. I will conclude that the IG and that DPO belong to d same secret cults. He should come and try it here in America.
That’s misuse of power! Why on earth should a senior officer beat up a junior officer? That’s unacceptable, the punishment will stand as a deterrent to other proud and senseless officers, who misuse their office to intimidate other.

That should be done to soldiers too. The way they humiliate civilians isn’t terrible and horrible
Na two ijoba… ko kan aye
The stupide DPO is surposed to have been sacked and not demoted.
He should be dismissed
he deserved dealt penalty.
I agree with you
see the idiot face
Infact, i was dissappointed with punishment dey gave d idiot. Anyway dis is Naija.
This is Nigeria am praying for thank you IG.
The IG is mad. That man should be jailed and sack from office. Nigeria is really a zoo country
That is very good. Thank you very much Inspector Arase. He is a Demi – god. This Female Traffic Warden was doing the work the police is supposed to do while the police is busy collecting bribes for the DPO at checkpoints. I am ashamed that this fool bears Igbo name. Look at the slim helpless female he beat to coma. God has paid him back in his own coin.
This is not issue of demotion. He needs to be removed from police force and see him as civilian then take him to court and jail him. What is demoting him????? Am not happy with this decision. Nija…..
He is educated illiterate
The DPO should have been sacked….that would send a very strong message
Think my brother.it is inhumanity to man.
Achina masquerade, how many bottles of (nmaya) *start arger have you soaked this morning? Imbecile, instead of you to apologize for your brother’s crime against humanity/women you comment seamlessly like the bianuisance that you are. Anuofia.
Honestly i don’t get d real story in this ur post, is DPO a rank? What rank was he b4 demotion or promotion?
Devil punish him
He should be dismissed from the force cos he is an animal wearing clothes n human form. Rubbish his own power is on a poor woman can he beat his fellow man like DAT. Animalistic animal.
U do we rely on now? A whole DPO fighting in public. Dat punishment z not enough, dey shld sack him
U must be an old fool. Did I hv any biz with evil man like u @Taiwo
He has to work in police kitchen
He has to work in police kitchen
Demoted? He should have been sacked.
Demoted? He should have been sacked.

He should not be sacked but should be persecuted after the demotion
He should not be sacked but should be persecuted after the demotion
Evidence of good law… He needs more than demotion.. Beating up a lady to coma and disobeying the law of Nigeria… That’s what most people on top rank do… Nonsense
Please people should ignore this news. He did not even touch the woman. she was beaten to coma as the news said, where is the picture evidence, and who revive her and in which hospital was she taken to? And nobody was demoted nor transferred.
I wished he was sacked
Where is the court to take decisions.
The IG need to be demoted to DSP while the idiot get fired
Why demotion? Why not sack him? The poor woman is in coma? What of she never survives it? The DPO must receive more than demotion.
yea,is a step in the right direction,but considering the gravity of the offence he comitted his punishment ought to be more than that.
He should be behind bars. Not just demoted. Love the western world. Ewon. Prison niyen
This is very good, But he should spend sometime in jail to receive some slap from armed robbers
OK. The akpo 6 killing wey happen that time, na Buhari dey govt? Abi those police killed on d road bec of Êgunjê, during Jonathan regime, na Buhari caused am? Abeggi leave matter for mathaus jor
Hope other officers will take a cue from this!
Do you blame them? when they are are in a position they act as if their personal name is nigerian power, they will meet their waterloo soon very soon. see him face and they no fire am. stupid fools. that takes the ladder with them when they climb up.
Demoting him to DSP is an insult to Nigeria, he should be dismissed from the police and charged to court for assault.
Can you imagine that. Hmmmmmm. This is Africa for you. Demotion!!!! Chai.
Sack is the name not demotion!!!!
That man is a foolish police man for besting that woman doing her job…
It is said and done give a man a uniform and power runs to his head .
Serves him right. I think that is how he beats up his wife if a brute like him has any
Prove that bush land law is not aplicable to everyone, os this not a jail crime?
the punishment is too small, he should also be transfer-ed to head a division close to sambisa, to demonstrate his boxing skills.
This will not , never serve as a deterrent to others but will encourage more Senior Police Officers to beat up d junior ones. He deserves a dismissal to check others .
See his face like a criminal,
