Nigerians have become a laughing stock to other Nations of the world

what do you expect.. when some group of people go about insulting our pride by calling our county zoo and all sort of names..

also insulting d president on international media platforms all in d name of "freedom fighting"

shebi dem sef dey use their eye see...

banmee:


No it's not. The very first thing you do is obey whatever legal directive a law enforcement officer tells you. You and i know that if that guy was in Nigeria, he would have gotten down as soon as a policeman tells him to.

He is by law entitled to an explanation as to why he is being arrested. You don't just scream orders and expect the man to lie down like a dog

even in heaven, obedience is the first law. young man, obey first and later present your case

The best thing about this is that I am sure he will get justice for all of these here in the Uk. Even if he did something wrong, he was willing to cooperate but was still being beaten. Trust me these police men will be tried. I am too sure of that

The UK people handled the situation well - you can't start acting like a terrorists on the transport network and expect to get away with it.

The should have just tasered his balls at the beginning - next time he won't try and 'fare dodge' which despite his pleas is a criminal offence.

MIPNIG:
Come back brother... In Nigeria you can't be treated like this.

In Naija na break they go break your head first no be only slap. Gun butt they will use to design your head. Tear they go tear your cloth. Abeggy come back to where... No light, no water, no petrol no roads, no good education system etc abeggy.
The solution is what did he do? Sue them if you are in the right the just ice system works there.
For Naija you still go pay bail yourself whether you are innocent or not with no apology

psquaret:
well there is no Smoke with out a fire. if this Happen here In Nigeria they will call Nigeria Police names and Police dont like when ever you Disobey his order. you must follow them and later make your case. its seems like an insult to them when you Refused to obey them and they will be left with no Option other than to use force.

Exactly.... he shuld hv just folowed dem quietly to resolve wateva d issue was but rather he chose to delay dem with strugglrs n so much grammer. repeating d same thinh constantly and attractin unnecesary scene to himself.

Is it better at "home"?

I didn't see any maltreatment there. All I saw was a fellow resisting arrest.

seems he used London transport without paying, doesn't wanna pay the fine, and resisting arrest. British police and their professionalism sha. if it was the US or Nigeria, he could have been shot. Canadian police would have brought him down like a bag of potatoe.

At least it would be His fellow country man doing that to Him.

BUTCHCASSIDY:


The treatment is not any better at home
Police or soldier will give him x3 this beating for no reason

NaijaSecForce:
What did he do before we comment?

It's like he boarded a train without buying ticket.

Is he a Nigerian or IPOB?

MIPNIG:
Come back brother... In Nigeria you can't be treated like this.

Says who? Stay there oooo it's better for them to beat you than the ones you call your own.

What do we expect when we have been labelled criminals across the globe by our president.

irunooboo:
may be the guy visa don expire

.......


Hello. please can i send u pm cus it been a while have been following your comment here on NL?

Thanks in advance.

I agree it's not 'better' at home. But the thought of being manhandled in a country you don't lay claim to in anyway is appalling.

TheGoodJoe:


When once the actions carried out by the Police is not right, they become criminals. So the question, what did he do does not come into play here.

The question is, are the actions of the police officers correct?

It is obvious they were trying to arrest the guy, perhaps cos of train ticket. And it is normal procedure to be handcuffed when you are being arrested cos of the safety of the police. However, the fact that he acted belligerent shows he was resisting arrest, which is a next offence on its own.

He is actually lucky it happened in London with folks around. If it had been anywhere else, they would've body slammed and fvcked him up. The man is an idiot.

AjayiWrites:
The UK police today maltreated a Nigerian citizen, though the reason was not unknown, but the police was caught hitting and slapping him while the man was saying why are you hitting me, I am not a criminal...

Please watch and share

I approve.

In fact they were tolerant. They ought to have tazed or pepper spayed him a long time ago.

you see what Buhari has caused? #crying .....I regret voting for you buhari. ... see what's happening nd ure busy traveling up nd dwn......lol haha, am I on drugs

After all the drama he still got handcuffed. He was saying 'is it because of fare?' Even if the fare is £2.50 you have committed an offence by not paying. It's written all over the train station and inside the train itself 'you could be prosecuted and fine £80'. No Oyster card, no credit card, no debit card and no money on you to buy the ticket from the counter. mr man next time obey the officer, he will use his discretion to either let you go with a warning or issue you a fine which you can pay later.

Lol.

abokiigbo:
He would have been shot dead if it was the US.

Untrue.

I called a friend there who witnessed it all. he told me that the young man was simply asked to join the queue and he protested. Asking the officer do you no me? Blablabla. Hence the treatment he got

How many times does he want the police to say get down before he obeys.

If na naija or America he for Don join his ancestors.

In these time of terrorism alert, u don't mess about with the police.

xp17:
the guy was resisting arrest. He should learn to obey orders and stop constituting public nuisance. Some folks think because they're black, it's inappropriate for a white policeman to arrest them. I call that bullshit



Can you hear yourself? The same Nigeria that the military ordered the assault of warri women who were peacefully protesting yesterday.
Which other country does that?

Please STFU!
The Brit Police l know used to be more polite than this?
There must have been a "reason d'etre" that establishes why the Police were interested in him, of all people in that public place.
When did it become a Crime to ask for "your offence" .....or why you are being handcuffed in PUBLIC?
What stops them from saying "You jump rail or your Visa has expired", e.t.c?


Common courtesy, except if a Policeman has "issues" in his mind already, should demand that if someone keeps asking you WHY, WHY, WHY are you hitting me"... you should just tell him there and then, a "summary" of what necessitated the arrest.

The guy was NEVER resisting arrest as we could all hear him say "I am ready to follow you"...and he was moving in the same direction, that the Police were also moving! That is not how to "resist arrest", you "self-hating Nigg*"!

Neither did he raise his hand against the Police or fight back, despite the Police hitting him repeatedly!
People like you are a disgrace to humanity because you lack any form of "dignity". Just look at the thrash you typed?

I bet you, if it was a fellow White Brits that was asking the same question, he would "politely"answer him ....and still arrest him.
That is sensible policing........... which does not always apply to black dudes .

Policing is not about flexing muscle with the civilians you are contracted to protect.
If they err, you tell them and arrest them. its that simple!

Even Nigeria Police will shotu at you and say "Mr. Man, l say park well, park well..... before l "soot" you!

If this is TRUE, he deserved to be arrested ...and l am sure he would know why he is being arrested!

That Man sdoes not sound like someoen who has this type of effrontery to say "Do you know me", to a Police officer.... otherwise he would have shown the same aggressiveness, when he was being mal-treated.

But "IF" you wrote the above in malice, to malign him, God will visit you with a worse judgement, in due time.

Note: I said "IF"........... so dont get worked up over nothing.

GeneralShepherd:

Yes he is. When i get pulled over by the cops or if i am walking on the streets and a cop stops me for my ID, i don't ask why. I give him my ID first and then ask why later. In this case, i will get down, then ask why. That is how it's done everywhere that i have been. He is lucky, if it were the German politzei, they would have almost crippled him before he would have the nerve to ask why. Do what you are told first, then ask why later. They are an extension of the law. People need to understand. And we didn't see the beginning of the video, so we don't know how it all began.

Bro the person who told u that, is economical with the truth of what transpired there.
