There appears to be a deliberate push by the police in Nigeria to polish their reputation as another police officer has been videoed sharing gifts to occupants of a motorised rickshaw. This time around, it wasn’t cash that was shared but bags of rice.

The latest image-boosting move comes in the aftermath of earlier videos showing an officer in Delta State handing out cash gifts to passengers in a ‘keke’ and another in Lagos doing likewise for occupants of a minibus in Lagos.
