The Delta State Police Command has arrested officers seen in a viral video counting bundles of cash inside a patrol van marked Area Command Asaba.

The video, which circulated widely on social media, sparked outrage as the officers were captured handling the money inside their parked vehicle, raising suspicions that it could have been proceeds of extortion.

Confirming the development on Tuesday, the Police Public Relations Officer for the Command, Bright Edafe, said the officers were swiftly tracked down and summoned before the Commissioner of Police.

“The policemen in the embarrassing video have been identified and arrested. They appeared before the CP today,” Edafe stated in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

He disclosed that two senior officers involved had already been issued queries, while two inspectors had been detained and would face an orderly room trial the Force’s internal disciplinary process for erring personnel.

Edafe assured that appropriate sanctions would follow at the conclusion of the trial.
