operatives of the  state police command have arrested a dismissed policeman for  carrying out illegal duty in Lagos.

He was paraded alongside a fake doctor,  Abdulrahman Mohammed, by the state commissioner of police Mr. Edgal Imohimi,  at the state command yesterday.

The dismissed policeman ,  Gimba Zalaba, said he was dismissed in 2015 because he travelled without permission for one month.

“The police declared me a deserter and that was what led to my dismissal. Someone called me to come and carry out a security job but I did not have money so I wore the uniform so I can get free ride. I was however arrested under the bridge at Ikeja”.
