The Ondo State Police have arrested four officers seen in a viral stop-and-search video on the Lagos-Benin Expressway.

The officers were accused of behaving unprofessionally after one of them allegedly told a driver, “If you are Igbo, I will detain you.”

The video caused outrage on social media, with many Nigerians accusing the officers of ethnic discrimination.

The police spokesperson, DSP Abayomi Jimoh, confirmed that the officers have been identified and taken into custody while the matter is being investigated.

The officers are:

* ASP Elomore Sodayo (AP/No. 207454)
* Inspector Adefila Adewale (AP/No. 332012)
* Inspector Olorunfemi Opeyemi (AP/No. 332449)
