too many angry people in nigeria , shooting an unarmed person because they brushed your car, what ever happened to auto insurance or go to mechanic estimate the cost for repair and let the person pay .

these police guys are becoming something else since the removal of checkpoint, they need to be called to order.

Wow.

Does the police even realize that the unarmed citizen pays the policeman's salary through his monthly tax?

what a pathetic incident!

This is another case of brutality and lack of respect for human life that is usually show cased by the nigeria police force.. I hope d cuprit will eventually face the music.

Where are all those bloody morons raining insults on the military yesterday for brutalizing a man that hit the GOC's personal car? Here its not even brutalizing or injury but shooting, killing and even injuring 2 other innocent people over the scratching of patrol van that does not even belong to them but to the government. If you call the military men animals, what do you call the police?

This is a clear case of frustration
