This might cause you some migraine: The Nigeria police force
shared photoshopped pictures of arrested crime suspects on Tuesday.
One was of four persons it said were former inmates who
escaped from the Edo prisons: Peter Osas, Onaruje Benjamin, Adebayo Opeyemi and
Hudu Musa.
The second one, posted a minute later, was of two persons —
Duleji Abubakar and Talatu Ibrahim — who allegedly had six AK-47 rifles in
their possession.
But here is the magic:
The four men captured in the first picture appear to be
posing alongside what might be mistaken to be their ghosts.
‘Standing’ behind them were visibly white images, nearly the
same height and shape as three of the men.

The second picture shows a man and woman standing behind a
table upon which were placed guns, cartridges and bullets.
On a closer look, the items on the table appear to be almost
suspended in the air in defiance of the law of gravity.
With the use of InVID software, it showed the images have been manipulated as both showed various inconsistencies with the original shots.

Further checks also revealed that the reflection of the
female suspect does not appear in the window behind her, while a white background
appears from nowhere beside the arm of her male counterpart.
Both spokespersons of the police headquarters and the
federal capital territory (FCT) police command did not immediately respond to
comments on the issue.
But Twitter users tackled the security agency, accusing them
of disinformation and misleading Nigerians.
Below are some of the reactions to the posts:
Let it be known that the official twitter account of the Nigerian police force posted a photoshopped picture to misinform the general public.
