If you are one of those persons dragging the police DPOs for refusing to stand as guarantors for youths who applied to join the Police Academy, then the Spokesperson of the Nigeria Police Force, Olumuyiwa Adejobi has a message for you.
Adejobi has warned Nigerians against signing guarantor’s forms for people they know nothing about.
To Adejobi, signing the guarantors form is not the issue, however the overwhelming consequences that trail such action is one that should be taken into consideration.
Issuing this warning in response to complaints that DPOs were refusing to stand as guarantors for youths who applied to join the police academy, Adejobi argued that it was not compulsory for anyone to stand as guarantor or referee to someone they do not know or trust.
Future Trouble
He warned that standing as a guarantor to an untrustworthy person could lead the guarantor into trouble in the future.
“It’s not compulsory for anyone to sign for you as a referee or guarantor.
“You must look for someone who knows you and can vouch for you to be your guarantor.
“I pity many who sign as guarantors for those they know nothing about.
” It’s dangerous and could be used against them in the future. You don’t stand as a guarantor for someone you don’t know.
So, if the DPOs and others are not ready to sign for you, it’s not an offence. You need to look for those who know you.
“Thanks,” Adejobi wrote.
