Abstract

The paper has examined the role of the Nigeria Police Force and other relevant agencies such as the EFCC and ICPC in the investigation and trials of accused persons. It has outlined criminal procedures and proceedings, the exact roles that the police force occupies at each level of court, how exactly the police initiate arrest with and without warrant, the role of other authorities in criminal trials. Although, the bodies that investigate and support the courts in prosecuting accused persons are prone to some vices, it can be inferred that these bodies still have their strong points and shortcomings. As a way forward, there should be proper and detailed investigation. Better funding should be provided. There is the need to also keep an up-to-date database of all offenders while forensic scientists provide scientific evidence for use in the courts to ensure the proper support either the prosecution or defence in criminal and civil investigations, among others.
