See the horrible way officials treated road users who failed to use pedestrian bridges.Officials were pictured arresting people in different areas in Lagos who failed to use pedestrian bridges when crossing highways and major roads Lagos.

Is this acceptable or abuse of power?

They should thank God they were not killed, Nigerians kill for silly reasons

Na people dey take their hand bring wahala for themselves & drivers. Kudos to the road officials..

Great action

Lawlessness. U see pedestrian bridge u still prefer to run cross road. Some people sha ehhh. But I can only do frog jump 4 ARMY. Any other premature force is a capital NO for me. Not to even talk of this Green and Yellow uniform. lol

Serves them right, it's funny how people will see pedestrian bridges and would still go ahead to cross the road, if there are no bridges that's a different thing

APC and lawlessness, no matter wat the crime is, it is improper to treat a human being as animal without value.

Good for dem......
Op, wat do u mean by horrible
If a car run dem over now, u will be writing graphics pictures....
Dis officials just avoided dat

But they are also crossing d express road. Day shd do press up too

That is lawlessness.It is totally unacceptable

Unacceptable.
Fine them.
People will adjust better when there is an economic incentive to change.

Edit; question of if they cannot pay fines?
Give them community service./delay their time by taking them for an hour of civic classes. Most of these people do this cos they want to quickly go somewhere. If he knows, he will be delayed by an hour, he will sacrifice the ten minutes or more to use the right option.
Making people frog jump is barbaric. Simple.
They are creative ways to enforce the use or non use of pedestrian bridges.
We don't live in a Gestapo state. These actions of para military groups telling people to frog jump has rippling effects. It confers unnecessary powers on them.

Thank God they were arrested, they may just have missed kissing death on the high way..

Good for them. It's for their safety. Some people just choose to be treated like animals.

flog d goats with koboko

Ok

Endtime

It is acceptable cos its better than risking their lives

Good grief! Do us all a favour by slapping your self. Smh

still better than opening fire at them.


oh! they are really not like our army or police

Nigerians will talk when there is no pedestrian bridge, but fail to use it when its provided.

That's the punishment for disobeying the law. It is better than lying down in an orthopaedic hospital or worse still, in a mortuary.

In as much as i am against such forceful approach.i think this is simply the best way to make lagosians obey the law.

Do you know how many people are knocked down weekly while crossing the road,even when the pedestrian bridge is close-by.
The other day i saw a woman carrying a baby,holding a boy and still carrying her bag and trying to cross the road......yet the pedestrian bridge is few meters away.The little boy was almost knocked down by a moving car...simply because the woman was dragging the little boy to run,and the boy looked tired and couldnt run at her pace.....People started cursing the woman-why on earth will she do that.
Funny enough when you are driving and see people trying to cross the road,the simply stroll or walk even when they know its a high way.
Along ikorodu road is a dead trap daily,people are knocked down.

Why is it that we find it very difficult to obey simply law? Yet we complain when the law is forcefully enforced.

Nigerians will complain the government did not provide bridge for them and when it's done they will abandon the same bridge built with millions and prefer facing crazy drivers risking their lives like they kept an extra one at home

Psalm18:

Unacceptable.
Fine them.

How much do you think that man serving punishment have in his account, but trust me after that 10 to 30 mins exercise, trust me the man will learn his lesson from body pains he will experience for days.

Ok
