Rapid Response Service Commander, Tunji Disu has revealed that Nigerians might land themselves in jail if they are caught with ‘U.K used Phones’ outside Nigeria.
Disu revealed that these phones may have been flagged off for criminal activities and such phones were rampant in Lagos.
He tweeted ;
You may go to jail if you take your “London used phones” (second hand phones) to Uk, US, Germany, South Africa, etc, as most of the “London used phones” have been flagged off as #robbed, #stolen or been used for #fraud. We confirm recoveries of such phones in Lagos. Be warned!
Mixed reactions however trailed the revelation, see below ;

Jefe Mello@JefeMelloA police commander should not make a blanket statement such as this one,especially in a polity where officers are not properly trained and no machinery in place to protect consumers right!

Abu Mu’minah@tomijoriOga, learn from those who used phones had landed in trouble. Examples are not far from verification. Warnings are not for the deaf ears and to be fore warn is to be fore armed.

HIGHLANDER@AbiodunDenloyeVery good warning. Needs to be given wider publicity. Poverty, greed, and covetousness have driven our people to buying London used phones the end of which might leave a bad taste.

A witch in your village@OfficialAlutaSo what kind of statement should a police commander be making? Are you aware many of the so-called London-used phones have issues just like Commander RRS rightly stated? People should beware not to fall victim for such terrible embarrassment when you innocently travel with phones

Adenrele Orimidupa@blastedupYet they won’t stop importing those phones in Nigeria. Nigeria is dumping ground for all used items.. From bendown select(ok) to used phones to tokounbo cars and the list goes on and on. May God turn our situations around for good.
