The statement qouted the Executive Director of IPC, Mr. Lanre Arogundade, as saying that the “incessant action or excessive use of force against journalists and civilians is dangerous to our democracy and a major threat to press freedom.

“We urge the men of the Nigerian Police Force to be mindful of events around the world and not continually create an environment where journalists will be afraid to work and discharge their duties effectively and efficiently.

“IPC, therefore, calls on the authorities at the Nigeria Police Force to take adequate and swift measures to bring to book those who violated the journalist while putting in place machinery to compensate Eniola Daniel for this inhumane treatment.

“We also call on the Nigeria Police Force to step up the training of its officers to be more respectful and courteous while discharging their duties. They should be reminded constantly that the primary responsibility of the Police is the protection of citizens including journalists and every other civilians”, the statement concluded.
