Testimonials
DSP Emmanuel Egapi
“I’m overwhelmed with Joy to have been nominated to attend this important programme known as Human Rights Training Programme’- Any person opportune to undergo this training will never go and remain the same.
In 2017, I was opportune to be among the course participants in the HR training held in Ibadan, Oyo State. Ever since then, my behavior in approaching a matter has changed, where by people ask if am a policeman? Or say that I am not meant to be a policeman. I have become more confident in myself as a police officer. All thanks to the organizers of this program, am grateful.”
SP Aminu Yahaya
“Honestly, I must confesse that with this seminar organised by PRAWA, in no time Nigeria Police will be changed. This is because, ordinarily an average police officer before see themselves as semi-god, that he can violate the right of the citizens and go free but with such trainings and series of human rights call, they have drastically been reduced to a minimum extent.
Amage Blessing, Recruit
“I am happy this training was included in our course, the concept of human rights based policing is well understood. I know this is what a lot of officers are lacking and that is why they are always harassing people and giving the police force a bad name.”
Bright Omoruyi
“I have learnt a lot during the three days training especially the planned principles, I now understand better how and when it is necessary to apply force, how best and when to use the fire arm. With the help of this training I have been able to identify some of the lapses and responsibilities and am willing to carry out these duties diligently and lawfully.”
CSP Francis Osagie Erhabor
“PRAWA, I am so excited I attended your workshop. Just apprehended a suspect connected in a case of armed robbery. Suspect was apprehended with the aid of a tracking device. After his arrest, he proved so difficult and denied completely having any knowledge of the case. No doubt, I was pressured to adopt torture to elucidate confession from the suspect but the knowledge acquired from the human rights training will not allow me. Having invited the suspect to my office alongside the investigators, I presented the information at my disposal that led to his arrest & eventually, he admitted knowing the guy responsible. Thanks to PRAWA for the workshop?”
ASP Chiweuba Ogechi
“I am very excited I was selected for this training. I never knew a proper investigation must be done before an individual can be arrested, and also the need for a suspect to speak with his/ her lawyer before writing their statement.”
