There was confusion at a filling
station along the Murtala
Muhammed International Airport
Road after a female police inspector
attached to the Airport Police
Command and identified as Mrs.
Florence Anih, was slapped by a
Nigerian Air Force lance corporal.
The lance corporal, who was in a
truck marked, Rotary Group 205,
was identified as Friday Zadiel.
Our correspondent learnt that the
incident happened last Wednesday.
Zadiel was said to be with another
officer, who did not wear a name
tag.
Our correspondent learnt from an
eyewitness that the victim had
driven into a branch of Forte Oil
Filling Station on Airport Road to fill
her fuel tank and discovered that
there was a queue, which she
joined.
However, when it came to her turn,
the station attendant saw that her
fuel tank was not directly facing the
pump.
She was reportedly asked to turn
her car for the tank to be in direct
contact with the nozzle.
It was learnt that as she tried to
turn as the attendant advised,
Zadiel saw her and thought she was
attempting to beat the queue.
He was said to have ordered her to
go back to the end of the queue.
In the ensuing argument, Zadiel,
who was in full military outfit,
allegedly slapped Florence.
He was also said to have used his
hand to break the windscreen of the
policewoman’s car.
A witness, who spoke on the
condition of anonymity, said Zadiel
and his colleague had earlier been
given preferential treatment and
allowed to fill the tank of their
vehicle because they claimed to be
on a special mission.
He said, “The woman was on the
queue and was not putting on a
uniform. When it got to her turn,
her fuel tank was at the other side
of where the nozzle was.
“She was asked to turn and as she
moved forward, the person behind
her quickly filled the space and the
attendant pleaded with the woman
to be patient.
“He attended to the person behind
her and was about to attend to her
when the air force man came from
the back and said the policewoman
would not buy the fuel. The air force
man said he was on a special
assignment.”
The manager of the station
reportedly intervened and ordered
that the woman be served.
The witness added that Florence,
however, said the officer and his
colleague should be attended to
since they were on a special
assignment.
“After they were served, the air
force man insisted that the woman
should go back to the end of the
queue.
“He started banging on her car and
the woman challenged him. So, he
told her, ‘you are stupid’ and the
woman also replied him, ‘you are
also stupid’ and that was how he
slapped her.”
It was learnt that the assault
resulted in a brawl.
PUNCH Metro was told that after
the duo were separated, the air
force officer, with his fist, hit the
victim’s car windscreen and
smashed it.
Florence’s husband, Mr. Justin Anih,
said he had been humiliated by the
incident.
He said efforts to get the military
authorities to punish Zadiel had
been abortive.
He said, “I saw the base
commander, who said it was
indiscipline in the service and the
man who beat my wife will be made
to answer for it.
“I also spoke with the unit
commander, who said he had sent
people to investigate, but nothing
has been done.
“I am bitter that my wife could be
beaten and humiliated in public
without provocation.
“There is no law in the country that
permits him to do that to my wife.”
The Command Public Relations
Officer, Logistics Command,
Nigerian Air Force, Joel Abioye,
confirmed the incident.
He added that the matter had been
resolved by the Divisional Police
Officer in charge of the woman
division.
He said, “I have been informed that
there was a minor altercation at the
filling station between the police
inspector and one of our officers.
“But the DPO, under whom the
policewoman was working came and
the matter was resolved amicably.”
The Commissioner of Police, Airport
Command, Wahab Salau, did not
pick his calls and had yet to reply to
a text message on the matter.
This is the second time a female
police officer would be assaulted by
an air force officer on the Airport
Road.
On January 20, PUNCH Metro
reported that a Chief
Superintendent of Police, Felicia
Victor, was slapped by a yet-to-be
identified air force officer attached
to the office of the Commandant,
Airport Command, Group Captain,
Victor Ajiboye.
