A U.S returnee accuses Lagos policeman of using cult group to threaten him inside police station.
The young Nigerian man who shared how he was manhandled in the early hours of today in Lekki Phase 1 wrote;
So
this morning In Lekki phase 1, i was sleeping when the security man
came to wake me up that he caught someone broke into my car with the
things he stole from the car and everywhere ransacked, we called the
security agency and they called the cops but they had no patrol vehicle
as they said, we decided to take him to the Lekki Divisional Police
station, the case was reported, i wrote a statement as the complainant,
to cut the story short they asked if i wanted to charge the thief to
court and that I’ll have to pay for the transport and some stuffs to be
able to charge a thief to court, i told them i don’t want to be the one
responsible for sending another man to prison for stealing things i
already recovered, they still begged for money anyway cos they found out
i just came back from America, i gave them some money and i wrote a
letter to withdraw the case and let everything go, so before i could
come back outside one of the policemen went and wrote on my car “MEET US
AT THE ELF BUS STOP SAYS BY AROMATE CONFRATERNITY TODAY OR YOU WILL
FINE YOURSELF AS A DEAD MAN BY 11 ON THE DOT signed “So i went
back into the police station to get the attention of the officers and
they were all acting like they don’t know who wrote it or what was going
on.Who could have come to a police station and write this on
the car, like WTF, This is what Nigerian police has been reduced to,
they either find a way to extort you or even kill you for your
possession if they have a chance, this is exactly why no one believe in
this country no more, this country will never be great, there’s no way
it will ever be, politicians aren’t the only problem we have…smfh
