The Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba has directed the Commissioner of Police in Osun State, Olaleye Faleye to investigate the alleged assault on woman Inspector Olorunsogo Bamidele by her Divisional Crime Officer (DCO) in Osun State.

The IGP’s directive comes after a viral video showed Bamidele accusing her DCO of assault and blackmail.

Bamidele in the video alleged that her senior colleague named Ajayi Mathew had approached her for an affair but she refused as she was married, but he didn’t accept her rejection as he blackmailed and assaulted her instead.

In a statement the Force spokesperson, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said the report of the investigation from Osun State Police Command is awaited before necessary actions are taken.
