Nigerian Police Officers Caught Beating Woman In Lagos (Video)

The Nigerian Police Spokesperson, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, has said the Lagos state command would investigate all information relating to the viral video of its officers assaulting a lady in the state.

Naija News reports that operatives of the Nigeria Police Force guarding the palace at Illasan, Lekki Phase 1, allegedly assaulted a lady who attempted to film the officers during a confrontation with a commercial driver.

A Twitter user, who shared a video of the incident on Tuesday, questioned the police authorities if the lady has been released by the officers who arrested her.

He said: “@Gidi_Traffic Last week police men guarding the palace at Illasan, Lekki Phase 1, allegedly assaulted a lady for attempting to record them during a confrontation with a Uber driver. The lady’s phone was seized and she was also arrested. Has she been freed? @BenHundeyin @Princemoye1”

Responding to the tweet, Olumuyiwa Adejobi said the Lagos State Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin will need to get more facts about the scene of the incident.

He said: “Well, Ben will need to investigate this and take necessary action. We will need to get more facts about this scene as the video is not long enough to deduce some things. PPRO Lag should detail the PCB to look into this and revert. It has been sent to necessary units to handle”
