Lagos DPO Detains Lover After Losing Gun During Alleged Office Sex

The Lagos State Police Command has detained one Jennifer Madueke over a missing service pistol belonging to the Denton Divisional Police Officer, CSP Adegoke Akinlade.

The 29-year-old was said to have been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, Yaba after spending three days in a detention facility at the Denton Police Station, Ebute Meta.

She was allegedly tortured to confess to the crime while in detention at Denton Police Station, Ebute Meta.

Madueke and Akinlade were said to have once dated and separated after the police officer was transferred out of Lagos over seven years ago.

According to PUNCH, a credible source said after the officer was posted back to Lagos, the lovers did not return to the relationship as they lost each other’s contacts but sometime in 2021, they met and exchanged phone numbers.

 

“That was when the DPO, who was married, proposed that they continue with the relationship.

“On Friday, August 27, he invited the lady to his office and slept with her till Saturday morning. He released her to go around 5am and even saw her off to the bus stop.

“They did not see each other again until last Saturday, September 4, when he invited the girl and told her they should go out.

“However, when she went to see him, he detained her and accused her of stealing his service pistol. He kept her in his cell till Monday, September 6. While the girl was in the cell, he asked his boys to torture her to make confessional statements.

“On that Monday, he took her to an herbalist on Jebba Street, Ebute Meta, around 8am. The herbalist told him that it was the girl that took the pistol, but she denied the allegation. It was from there he took her to the SCIID, Yaba, where she has been detained till now,” the source added.

PUNCH reported that on Tuesday, September 7, the police at the SCIID took the suspect to her house and ransacked the apartment with the hope of recovering the missing pistol.

The effort, however, failed as nothing was seen.

Source claimed that the DPO was queried by the state Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosu.
