The Command condemned Inspector Kwanchi’s unprofessional conduct and promised to mete out the necessary disciplinary actions against him.

Lagos Police spokesman, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, who disclosed this on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday, said: “The police officer in this video, Inspector Istifanus Kwanchi, serving with the Mobile Police (MOPOL), has been brought in for appropriate disciplinary actions.

“@LagosPoliceNG condemns in its entirety all forms of unprofessional and unethical behaviour on the part of its officers and men; and will definitely bring to book anyone found culpable.”

Recall that the Force Public Relations Officer (FPRO) of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF), ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, had earlier revealed that the man filmed firing shots to celebrate the reopening of the Ladipo Market in Lagos, had been identified.

In a viral video shared on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday, a man was seen firing shots into the air while onlookers cheered him on.

In his initial reaction to the development, ACP Adejobi had earlier stated that a probe had been launched and the man will be identified.

However, in an update on Wednesday via his X handle, the Police spokesman revealed that the man had been identified, and the Lagos State Police Command would address the matter.

ACP Adejobi wrote: “The man has been identified. The Lagos State Police Command will speak on it asap. Let’s wait for their reaction on the matter. I really commend the efforts of the CP on it. Excellent indeed. Thanks.”
