She Absconded For 21 Days’ — Lagos Police React As Female Officer Claims She Was Detained For Resigning.

Fauzziyah Ebunoluwa, a female police officer attached to the Lagos Police Command has decried her detention by the police after notifying the force of her resignation.

Ebunoluwa, popularly known as an Apiculturist/Beekeeper, works in the religious department of the Command.

She narrated her ordeal in a series of tweets shared at about 1.07 am on Thursday, saying she was detained without interrogation and denied toiletries.

The police authorities in Lagos had allegedly asked Ebunoluwa to report to the Command on Wednesday to meet with the Deputy Commissioner for an interview, unbeknown to her she would be detained.

“I never saw this coming. I have never thought I’ll be put in detention without interrogation. All I did was try to resign. I have been trying to resign from the Police since last year but my letters were not approved.

“My boss had called me to show up yesterday 24th of May to meet the Deputy commissioner for an interview. I thought they were finally going to approve my resignation but the only words I heard was that I should be detained to be tried and dismissed.

“Due to the shock, I couldn’t say anything as the officer led me away. Later, I heard that I should have begged and cried but my lack of reaction worsened the matter. I cried a river after it all dawned on me.
