The Edo State Commissioner of Police has ordered an investigation into a clash involving police and traffic officers in the state.
The directive followed a confrontation between personnel of the Nigeria Police Force and traffic officers, which reportedly attracted attention and raised concerns over the conduct of law enforcement officials.
The commissioner directed that the circumstances surrounding the incident be thoroughly investigated to establish what led to the confrontation and determine the appropriate action.
The police authorities are expected to establish the roles played by those involved and ensure that any officer found to have acted outside the law faces necessary disciplinary measures.
The development comes amid the need for closer coordination between security agencies and traffic management personnel to prevent confrontations that could affect public order.
The Edo Police Command said the investigation would help clarify the incident and ensure accountability among personnel involved.
