In recent times, many Nigerians have been Brutalized, Assaulted by the Nigerian police, Army or other gun wielding security operative in Nigeria.
We hear and see the news everyday and some of us have witnessed incidents like this or have been a victim. Many of the extrajudicial assault/ battery that have occurred in Nigeria have often been explained away by the authorities as “accidental”.




But we all know that majority of the killings and Assault are done willfully only for the police or army to cover them up even when there is more than enough evidence and witness to help prove the truth.
These tips could help you avoid being ‘accidentally shot or assaulted by trigger happy police officer or a soldier
1. Don’t argue With a drunken officer:
A drunken police officer with a gun is time bomb waiting to explode. He can pull the trigger or gravely batter you because he does not have the control of his senses.These officers of the law don’t see sex or age as a barrier.They assault both old and young, Male or Female.
Arguing with any police officer at all is an unwise thing to do. It infuriates a trigger happy officer when angrily confronted.
2. Avoid Late Night Crawling:
You can be mistaken for a criminal and shot or arrested indiscriminately by the police who are usually on edge during such nights. Police officers are aware of the danger the faced during the wee hours and are always on alert.
3. Stay Away From Hostile Neighborhoods:
Police officers In Nigeria often patrol hot spots and hostile areas more frequently than any other place.
When a fight breaks out among rival gangs in hot spots and hostile areas, police deploys force to restore peace in the areas thereby if you are seen in that crime area, you maybe mistaken for a street thug and arrested and even battered before being cuffed.
4. Avoid Scenes of Violent Protests:
Most of us have had our share of the indiscriminate battery or teargassed when protesting especially in educational institutions.
