The Nigeria Police Force says it is investigating the authenticity of a photo showing some policemen endorsing President Muhammadu Buhari for a second term.

In a photo which has since gone viral on social media, three policemen are seeing throwing up eight fingers, a sign that has since been adopted by the Buhari campaign organisation to mean ‘four plus four’.

In a Twitter post, the police said,

“IGP M. A Adamu has charged the Digital and Forensic Unit of the police to investigate the authenticity of the photo to ascertain whether it is real or photo-shopped. The outcome of the investigation and appropriate actions will be made known to the public.”

In a related development, another photo of soldiers endorsing Buhari surfaced on social media on Wednesday.

In the photo, four soldiers clad in camouflage wielding AK47 rifles are seen holding up eight fingers signifying continuity of the Buhari administration.

Efforts to speak with the Director, Army Public Relations, Col. Sagir Musa, proved abortive as he did not immediately respond to phone calls.
