I thank the Almighty God for his mercies.

This morning I, my brother and niece left Enugu very early for Lagos. As I passed the New Market and joined the Expressway leading to 9th Mile. I got to a check point manned by Men of the Mobile Police Force. This was around 5.30am. Luckily, I was courteous in responding to the officer's questions about our movement.

Just three minutes after we left them I noticed a '96 model Toyota Camry parked with the hazard lights on. As if they had a breakdown.
In the split second, I noticed a young man in the driver's seat and another at the boot, on realizing that a car was approaching, and a shiny saloon car, the one outside started coming forward. Thank God that I drive regularly on long distances so I obeyed my instincts and stopped, flicked my headlights to full beam.

Immediately I noticed that the guy was waving at us to come forward with his left hand and his right hand had snaked to his back waistband retrieving a gun.

Did I need a prompt to do the 'Ben John...'?

No way.

Luckily as I stopped I had reflexively put the gear in reverse so as his hand was coming back to the front I was already doing some serious speed backwards. At a convenient spot I did a 360 degree and faced where I came from.

As I got to the police check point, I informed them about the 'men at work'. Immediately, they mobilized and got another vehicle and four officers followed us rather preceeded us in another vehicle. While another officer drove their Patrol Hilux after us.

For security reasons I won't describe the actions they took.

As we passed the robbers quietly, stopped and the officers disembarked and started moving in on them, 'omo', the guys picked race.

The officers then followed in hot pursuit.

I really thank the team who did this. They were professional, swift, displayed great courage, didn't seek for gratification before and after. Unfortunately, we couldn't follow them to see the outcome or say "thank you" hence I am doing this incase their superiors are reading this.

The team was on night duty in front of the filling stations around Iva Valley outbound Enugu, heading to 9th Mile.

God bless you all.

Let it not be only bashing for our Gallant Mopols. Let's celebrate them when they perform and deliver also.

Thank God for your life!! That side is very dangerous
