Why I don’t take bribe is that it’s a taboo for a prince to take bribe because of its consequences’— Police spokesperson, Muyiwa Adejobi
The Force spokesperson of the Nigeria Police (NPF), Olumuyiwa Adejobi, a deputy commissioner of Police (DCP), on Sunday, said he doest not take bribes because it is taboo.

“Your main purpose in life is to put smiles on people’s faces. It’s Godly and rewarding. It’s my personal principle and a call to duty.
“I preach this to my colleagues and many others always. May we have the grace to remain steadfast and purposeful in life.”
