DJ Exclusive, a popular Nigerian DJ, has warned the Nigerian Police about the dangers of targeting only flashy cars during stop-and-search operations. According to him, this approach allows criminals to escape unnoticed by driving inconspicuous cars ¹.
Exclusive stated that the police should be aware that targeting only flashy cars creates an opportunity for thieves and other criminals to roam freely, as they can simply use cars that are not flashy or attention-seeking. He emphasized that the police should adopt a more comprehensive approach to stop-and-search operations, rather than focusing solely on flashy cars.
This warning comes amid concerns about police corruption and extortion, with many Nigerians feeling that the police often target innocent motorists, especially those driving expensive or flashy cars, for bribes and extortion.
