Tiwa Savage has disclosed on Twitter why policemen are collecting bribes rather than protecting us. The “Ma Lo” hitmaker who is currently being roasted on social media, wrote, “Even a zoo is cleaner and better than police barracks and we wonder why policemen are collecting bribes out there rather than protecting us”.

However, the Nigerian singer’s tweet didn’t go down well with many who insist the state of the barracks should never be justification for the viciousness meted out on Nigerians by the police.
Check out their reactions below.
Tiwa, what does the cleanliness of their barracks which is a responsibility of theirs have to do with the total disregard for human life they exhibit daily?. https://t.co/KYABWxC7ga

Please don’t try to justify the greediness and wickedness of the Nigerian Police.

Whoever is handling Tiwa must really hate her, because this is way past God-level tone deafness.

It is the fault of the police men, that their barracks are dirtier than a zoo. Zoo is kept clean by the zoo keepers, so police barracks must be kept clean by the police men and women who work in them. Tiwa, does anyone keep your house clean for u? If yes, they are your employees

Pinning this down to poor remuneration & upkeep of the work force is problematic. Increase in pay of these men won’t ensure a halt in their unscrupulous activities. The entire system needs upheaval from the way these men are recruited to how they’re kept in check & penalized.
