I’m still shaking and crying as I write this because I have never felt this way in my entire life. I’m also scared writing this because he threatened me. So my Life is your hands Nigerians.

I was on the ATM queue and this @NigerianArmy official asked me to move so he can pass, I asked him if he was on the queue that there is a queue, he asked me to move, I moved and continued asking him if he was on the queue, he flared up as you will see in the video below, and before I knew what happened he brought out his belt and hit me.

@UBAGroup, this happened at your branch in Oshodi and your security men were there. He hit me!!!!!
I literally cried my way to the office. I never insulted him. I only asked if he was on the queue and he got angry and furious and violent.
