SP Bright Edafe, the Delta Police Command’s spokesperson, has on Saturday 23rd of August 2025, said that police officers are within their rights to search individuals’ pockets and bags without a warrant.
Edafe made the statement in a post on X, where he shared a video detailing how a suspected thief was caught and arrested with a firearm.
The post reads:
“Do the police have the right to search you randomly without a search warrant? The answer is yes, search you and not your houses or your phones. “
“But to search you, your bag, pockets, is allowed. This chap was standing at a club around 5 AM looking suspicious, when operatives of RRS intercepted and searched him, and this gun was recovered. “
“Listen to his reason for taking the gun to the club.”
