How did you know how she speaks to her husband?

You no see am?. Ok o

I hv always said dat d naija police force shud not b dat job u get wen thr is no other thing 2 do..

This is wickedness but I am seeing it from another angle. A woman who can't tame her tongue had brought pain on her family.

Surprisedly, another WOMAN advising her to learn how to talk.

Notwithstanding, justice must be served.

Wetin consign Ngozi Braide for dis mata?Is she the commissioner of Police? The useless corrupt DPO and the drunkard police that inflicted dis on the couple should be dismissed but Nig being a lawlessness country where everything/anything goes,they'll sweep the matter under carpet

lonelydora:
I hope Ngozi Braide is seeing this.

Wisdom is profitable, Naija is a jungle.

I wouldn't provoke, argue with A Nigerian policeman at night, scratch " knowing my right, bla bla"

It takes nothing for them to pull the trigger. YOLO and life is super sweet. I'd simply patronise them, massage their dead ego and go my merry way in one piece. Doesn't make me a foool.

Good luck to the couple.

Its cowards like you that made the policeman in this story to have the balls that he has. If you report him just like the couple have done, he would probably be jobless by now.

In as much as d policeman acted babaric, u will discover from d story dat d woman was d cause of d problem, if a policeman is beaming his light @ u, he has his reasons, I knw she must av talked rudely to him now de ar blamin d police.

Since we knw our policemen ar not very civilise, we ought to learn how to manage dem, by talkin rudely to dem, u too ar not civilise.

The woman had every right to tell the officer to redirect the light! Being rude or sarcastic is not a criminal offence

I hope the police commissioner and IG do the needful.

Animals in uniform.

We have descended so low and have suffered so long, that we can't even voice out in the face of injustice.The story stated that the inner light was on, so why was the police officer still flashing his torch light on the couple?
It's now a crime for me to tell my fellow human being to stop flashing light directly at my face because he is a police officer?
If the couple were driving one powerful SUV, will he have the gut to do that?
If the couple were in a government issued vehicle, will he have the gut to do that?
ANYONE WHO REMAINS SILENT IN THE FACE OF INJUSTICE IS ALREADY DEAD.

and the woman don't have reason for telling him not to point light on their faces when the cab light's on

That stage in a country where lawyers are so clueless all they ptefer is write a letter to the IGP because either they dont know what to do to get justice for their clients or too lazy to face law enforcement agencies head on is sad.

Worse is that stage where in a country,with over 30 persons watching a police officer with less than 5 ammunition will arrest a non violent person,restrain him/her and begin to beat living light out of him/her and people will watch,not even anyone make an attempt to privately record it even if they cannot do anything. I have only seen an army officer interven at Apo once when at that Shoprite junction police officers after arresting and cuffing him where beating and hitting his head,trust me was a slap from the army guy to one of the officers stopped the madness.

Dont help anyone you see and send these bad officers away,someday it might be you he will find irritating and many will read your story.

So pathetic, I hate Nigeria police with passion rubbish people

seunlayi:
[size=18pt]the said policeman, his colleagues on patrol and the dpo should be made to pay for this as another sample to other officials who are fond of maltreating innocent civilians[/size]

Dats why I love it sometimes wen d police ve problem with d army and d army treat dere Bleep up. Stupid black and black people........mtchewwww, I hate dem ehn! D police is never my friend though I ve friends dat are officers. I am angry because I was once a victim

A 29-year-old photographer, Ejeh Smith, and his wife, Grace, 26, are in pains and receiving treatment at a Lagos hospital after a police officer, identified as Dada Ogunsanya, allegedly tortured them with his rifle.

Ogunsanya is attached to the Ikoyi Police Division.

The incident happened at the Lekki Roundabout on Wednesday, last week, while the couple was in a taxi en route to their home at Parkview Estate.

PUNCH Metro learnt that the police officer was among a seven-man team, patrolling the area around 10pm.

The police team was said to have stopped the taxi driver and demanded that he opened his boot for a routine check.

The taxi driver, Ndubuisi Iheaka, told our correspondent that after he opened his boot which contained scaffolding belts, the policeman demanded to see his driving licence.

“I was about getting the driving licence when he started flashing his torchlight on my passengers who were sitting at the back.

“The wife told the officer not to flash the torch on them since the inner light of the vehicle was on.

“Because of what she said, the policeman asked them to come down from the cab. This started an argument. The next thing I saw was that the policeman pulled my passenger (Ejeh) by his trousers, and his wife went to plead with him to stop.

“But instead, he slapped her and punched her husband. He was wearing a ring, which inflicted a deep cut on Ejeh’s face. After that, he used the butt of his gun to hit him in his eye and face. He also dragged his wife on the road.”

Grace said the policeman, apart from slapping her, stepped on her tummy.

“If I was pregnant that night, I would have lost my pregnancy. I was only trying to pet him to leave my husband since he did not have business with us. I told him to face the cab driver and leave us alone. “The other policemen were just looking at him while he dragged me on the ground. A man riding a tricycle at the time was the one who rescued me. He said the policemen must call their Divisional Police Officer or else he would not leave the scene,” she said.

The Ikoyi DPO, Mrs. Aisha Haruna, was said to have arrived at the scene.

Ejeh claimed he could barely see because blood was dripping from his eyes, while his wife was vomiting blood. He added that the DPO ordered that they be taken to the station to make statements.

He said, “But we told her that we needed to first treat ourselves before we could make statements. That was when we were given forms and referred to the Falomo Police Hospital. We paid for the treatment and we also went to the eye clinic for treatment.”

His wife claimed that the DPO seized her phone and asked an inspector at the station to delete all the pictures and video recording she did of the incident.

“Even my personal data were deleted. And when I asked the DPO why she did that, she said we deserved the treatment we got. She said she would have locked us up in the cell if not for our injuries. She said we did not know how to talk,” she added.

The family lawyer of the victims, Mr. Sunday Agbinya, said his office would write a petition to the Inspector General of Police to redress the wrong done to his clients.

“This is a case of assault occasioning harm and we intend to challenge it. We will send a petition to the IG. We want the police to conduct a full investigation into this,” he said.

The legal officer of a non-governmental organisation, Project Alert on Violence Against Women, Mr. Ben Odeh, said the police officer responsible for the act should be disciplined for torturing the couple.

He said, “It is a breach of their constitutional rights. The policeman went too far.”

The Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, confirmed the incident.

He said, “Yes, the incident happened in the Ikoyi division. Inquiries are on as well as disciplinary procedures.”

Henrypraise didnt read d part that says the inner light in the taxi was on

Wisdomkosi:
How did you know the name of the police officer?

Are u a Nigerian?
Have u seen a Nigeria police officer before?
If u have not pls find one and u willsee name tag on thier uniform.

Hmm....Instead of fighting crimes and insurgencies affecting societies, Naija police prefer to use all their bloods to fight against anything that will prevent them from collecting their N50.

In Wole Soyinka's voice - "it is an act of stupidity to argue with a man that carries a gun".

i disagree with u. Some of this things must stop somewhere somehow. So many cases like this happen daily amd nobody talks about them. We should advocate citizen right and not put our tails between our legs as if we are cowards. No pain no gain. If pple like martin luther king jr ddnt die obama would best be an adviser to one white senator. You do not do the same thing all the time and expect a dffnt result. If things must change we must commend and file behind couragous pple like this couple.

Woooooow.... your view is immensely appalling.
You remind me of a slave that didnt know he was a slave.
Police men are not meant to be feared..... even if she insulted the police men, all he should is caution her or arrest her. There is no need being violent.

Why would you beat an unarmed civilian who poses no threat because he/she refuses to massage your ego!!

Woooooow...

Its so unfountuate that the Nigeria police have to act this way, but be that as it may be, looking @ the case from one angle, and pronouncing judgement, will not be okay, perhaps the police on their own part will definately narrate their own part of the story; especially now that the issue is now on one of the dalies of today, and it was read of "radio Nigeria" newspaper review this morning.

They need psychiatric evaluation.some are worse than motor park touts.the couple are even lucky he's not a trigger happy type.

By now na anoder torey we for dey yan.
