The Lagos State Police Command on Wednesday said it had arrested a policewoman caught in a video footage demanding a bribe of N100 from a commercial bus driver.

Public Relations Officer of the command, Ngozi Braide, told our correspondent on the telephone that the arrest followed a probe of the video which has been circulating on the social media.

“We have arrested her and she is presently in custody. She will be made to undergo an orderly room trial and the outcome will be made public,’’ Braide said.

When asked to provide the name and the station the female cop was attached, Braide said she could not immediately provide the details and told our correspondent to call back.

Subsequent calls placed to her phone were not answered. A text message sent to her phone on the matter was also not replied.

In the last 24 hours, the one-minute 25 seconds video, which first appeared on YouTube, has attracted double the amount of views, moving from 23,000 to over 46, 000 as at the time of this report.

In the footage, the policewoman was heard insisting on collecting the N100 bribe from a driver who she apprehended for violating a traffic rule at a yet-to-be identified location in Lagos.

The driver who had passengers in the bus was heard appealing to her that he should be allowed to proceed on his journey. But the driver’s pleas fell on deaf ears as the policewoman insisted on collecting the bribe.

The policewoman was heard saying, “E no concern me. Pay me my own money.”

Osama10: NPF corruption revolution.

Nkanuzu: Good developement in Nigeria, thanks to advance tech! Since our journalists have failed us in exposing corrupt officials, the youths have taken it upon themselves. Shame to all Nigerian journalists who have abandoned the tenets of their profession in pursuit of partisan politics! My advice is that this sting operation revolution should go beyond police officers and extend to all public officials. Secondly, people should be smart and discrete in recording law enforcement agents because if u are caught your offence may be "doubled" or u may be attacked! Nigerian youths, good people good patriots!

pDude: This is how we will collect our country back from every bastard that has usurped it.

Fvcking police officers. They think in this day and age of advancement, they can continue to act like animals and get away? Rubbish and nonsense. They act shamelessly and without caution just because they think nobody can do anything about it. Well, business has changed. We will take our shyt back by force.
