Evidence of change in Lagos state

W.A.I, is getting back upon us. Remember our president - elect is Buhari!!!!

U sef don't u do what that man do... are u going to say u use predestian bridge always

buygala:
Nice one .... If he really commited that offence, he should even be made to wash 10 kilometres of that road



I still don't get why Nigerians have to be coerced to take steps which preserve their own lives

This is good. Im still trying to wonder the thing with lagosians and the pedestrian bridge-like seriously.

And if to confirm that nature itself is offended, many of the big time accidents leading to death on the highway happen just under or stone throws away from a pedestrian bridge! We never learn.

The man pictured was punished for crossing the highway instead of using the pedestrian bridge in Ikeja...He was ordered by the security operative to kneel and hold his ears ...Is this right though?

So it's ok for the police to be judge, jury and executioner. No wonder Nigerians are still in bondage. The mentality is amazing.

e funny oo But if na my papa wahala for dey oo

A LOT BETTER THAN BEING CRUSHED TO DEATH BY A FAST MOVING VEHICLE

socialmediaman:
This is not right! Riot act should be read to the Nigeria police to respect human rights, this man should be arrested and given a citation at the police station, not treated this way

You dey talk like say na oyinbo land we dey. The thing wey police go do am go 10 times what he is receiving now

barcanista:
WTF? I hope we will not be seeing this kind of barbarian punishment under the APC led FG?

this Niggar is on cheap Crack or what? That same spot this man is being punished, a man was there 4 days ago lifeless after being knocked down by vehicle. Thats Ikeja along fyi, that bridge was built for a purpose...if this what it takes fr to b sane let frog jump b included

barcanista:

There's nothing barbarian about that purnishment and I fully support it. They didn't beat him at least. Under Gej administration, Nigerians witnessed harsher purnishments so what exactlly are you talkinng about? Besides we are still under Gej adninistration until May 29.

Let not your hate for the General consume you.

fujirice:

Just dey here dey run your mouth. Just pray such evil don't befall you cause anyday u try it, na condemned tyre and petrol go be your portion. Ogwula ka oha m n'onu.

I made that promise in 2011 and it still applies till today.

If you like, cross the express, especially along Ikorodu rd, just pray I'm not driving past at that period because if I hit you, I'll never stop to look at your wretched, disobedient, ignorant body.....let alone help you.

I also have a lawyer that will get me off the hook if I hurt you bad while at it.

Goat, the Govt spends millions of Naira to build a bridge for your safety and you still prefer to endanger your life......when you're not an animal.

barcanista:
Why una like to kill?

If you like cross the express way under a pedestrian bridge and I hit you, I'll never stop.

We're overpopulated in Nigeria, especially in Lagos so if you get hurt due to your ignorance or dispbedience of the law, you'll just become statistics.

If I could carry 2 buckets of paint up to 100m to use a pedestrian bridge when my destination was staring right at me across 10 lanes, no one should have an excuse.

What of his constitutional right to human dignity?

Whoever does not see anything wrong with this must be a barbarian. The man committed a traffic offence and there is a prescribed punishment for it. That is why we have laws. You punish him according to how the law prescribes e.g community service.

It seems some people on this thread know nothing about fundamental human rights.

The man deserved it.this same week somebody was crushed out of this world under that bridge at ikeja- along.

Dignity to break the law?
Dignity to put his life and that of other road users in danger?
Dignity to behave like an animal?
Which is worse? A frog job, 20,000 naira fine at that spot or a 3 months jail term? Pick one.

Before you pick, study the man very well and see which of them should be melted out to him.

Oh boy!
So you mean when you park illegally or run past a red traffic light, the police man should slap and beat you instead of arresting you? Because then you have put the life of other people in danger.

Or when they arrest you for stealing or even murder, they can torture you and make you sit on a hot plate just because you committed an offence?

It shouldnt be about what is better or worse. He is not a judge and does not have discretionary powers. He should leave the use of discretion to the Court.

Everybody has the right to human dignity no matter the offence committed. Its the law.

CedarStudios:
What is not right is allowing recalcitrant Nigerians to get killed...We are different from the western countries and we will approach our issues in our own way.

Then we might as well do away with the constitution then. Jungle justice all the way so we can approach issues our own way.

Smh

Now that you are seeing it under PDP led FG?

Na person father be ds ooo... Wicked police.... If to say na thief now... He go pick raise...

You weren't there when the incident happened, so you can't really say what happened before the frog jump.

Slap or beating, worse happen in western world, don't make it look like its peculiar to this place.

Now I ask you again, looking at the picture of the guy, which is more inhumane?

Made to pay #20k at that spot
Jailed for 3 months
Made to do frog jump.

Waiting....

Abeg which constitution & which section does it says that a policeman can punish a civilian.
Asking him to kneel down on d main road like a nursery school child is very wrong. He should av punish him in accordance with d law.


This is Abuse of power & Human right #

Please put yourself in the guy's shoes, assume you are that guy, study his picture very well.. Now tell me, which of these would he easily go for?

Please be honest with your answer.

The topic already told us what happened and last I checked you weren't there either. Let's stick to the facts we have.

Secondly, whether or not it is the norm in other countries is not my business. We have a constitution which is supreme and one individual cannot singlehandedly decide to do things his own way. So I take it that you are one of those 'follow the crowd' people? If everyone is doing it then it must be right?

Thirdly, the law does not deal with emotions. If it did then we won't have the death penalty. So looking at that picture, I don't care how the man looks or if he can afford the 20k. If he committed the traffic offence then he should be punished according to the traffic law. That man had no right to ask him to frog jump. Only illiterates who do not know their rights will accept to do that.

So u think dey did him a great favour by not following d right way?. Because d punishment is lesser on d guy does not make it right. And that should not b encouraged.
Thank You!

Am i the only one seeing this or what? This is a photosop and not a real photo,take a look at the transiction between the head od the guy been punished and the Policeman.

masseratti:
Where is the evidence that this is a case of a man crossing the highway, the man standing does not look like a Kai official, the pants he wore is used by other law enforcement agents both FG one state in Lagos,it might be an army man dealing with a bus conductor
