"This is me. I am the woman involved.

This is me been beaten by the police today on my way to get drugs and some relief materials for my people.

My body is all swollen. Already I had heard how sergeant Ikuesan can be so mean to Iwo people who are law abiding. But I've never met him in person until today. He refused to listen to me.

This is a pic of one of the bruise on my thigh aftermath of the beating. Many more on my thighs and all over my body."

Shameless men. Just imagine our so called Police .

Cruelty at it's peak, a lady for God's sake, mtcheew. Am pained really

Modified: A lot of people have asked what of if it is a man? This is too brutal for a slimmest excuse of coming out to buy sth in lock down.

No one deserves that, not even a guy, but then if u as a man can raise cane and flog a lady like this, then sth big is wrong with you, u are a time bomb ......

These men u see here definitely are wife beaters.

Guys quoting me, i believe u understand what my real message is. A grown up lady flogged like where d are flogging cows with no modicum of humanity, u can only imagine what it would have been if it was a guy, that is why d police shoots are mostly with guys.

The system is very reprehensible and barbaric.

Sad

Damn.

Those police men beat up their wives at home so beating the living demon out of that woman wasn't an issue for them.


Foolish men. No matter what she did why would u flog her like she stole ur scrotum? Na for unarmed civilian body Una dey get power.

Sorry o.

My dear sorry ok..next time if you see them, just run. Nigeria is helpless for now

In a sane country, this woman don hammer. Lawyers will so sue NPF that with the settlement she will get, she will be made for life

This is Nigeria, I hope wit time this issue will not be swept under the carpet as NPF has been doing befr now. And as for the lady, I hope they will not later come for her. This is a country where the righteous who know no person never win.

Everyone is always going out to get drugs when they are caught!!!

I do not support what the Police did, but then, stop telling lies biko

Man's wickedness to man.

Too bad

Make Dem give the woman cane to Flog the hell out of them too... something should be done to Nigeria police force o
