I know I am gonna be attacked for this post..

But why do Nigerians put themselves in situations that gives the Police the opportunity to burst a cap in their a`ss?!

I know that the Police are crazy demented Niggas.. So I wont break the Law so I dont give them any reason to shoot me.. The Okada man that got shot, he was breaking the law. I'm not saying that its okay for the Police to shoot people at random o!! But if you take a lighted candle into a room full of gunpowder, I cant blame the gun powder for the explosion..

I am disappointed in your comment bro. So Nigerian citizens should now walk around in fear because we have trigger happy police? Is that a solution? Is that the future? Is that what you want to leave for your children? A jungle mentality? What kind of traumatic and backward society will that become?

I am warning all NIgerians that they should go read history and learn. If we dont learn, we will all suffer immensely and what we think we are suffering now, will be childs play. We must reorientate ourselves from this jungle and military mindset. We cannot claim to be civilized and be thinking this way. It is barbaric, it is cave like and it is a sign we are not civilized. These mindset is 1000 times more dangerous and detrimental to our collective progress than 10000 corrupt politicians!

Anyone who tries to justify these killings in any way or form has exactly the same mindset as the Aluu killers. Not one difference. The mere fact that we post these things online and enjoy watching them and even make fun of them is a sign we have a barbaric society.

There is no civilized country of the world where you can post something like this online and it will not spark a riot on the streets immediately. Some are even making fun of the thread and telling us about business and fun. It is because we have become a callous and wicked nation. We deserve exactly the leaders we have, maybe even worse

So breaking a law, does it warrant a man to be killed like this as you stated? No worry, you will one day become a victim of Nigerian Police Brutality. Let us call a spade a spade. Why must Nigeria police kill? Must they kill someone because they disobeyed the law? Fashola should understand that he should not force laws by using armed mad dogs. If Fashola is privileged to be eating and living a comfortable life, he should equally understand that there are people who are less privileged and should be looked upon as human beings. His action towards beautifying Lagos state of which we are not against should be a gradual process and not this way he has rolled illiterate police officers and his LASMA officials to apply unnecessary force. The policeman should be meant to pay for the life he took. This draconian laws by Fashola should be revisited.

.. You have to re-trace the origin of the problem.. The Danfo driver was driving on the shoulder (sidewalk, corner of the road). He used his bus as a weapon to drive away pedestrians from the road.. He could have killed someone.. the Danfo Driver and his Conductor were breaking the law, . He got to another pedestrian (a plain cloth police officer) that stood his gorunds and refused to budge.. Rather than fall back into his lane, he proceeded to assault the pedestrian by allegedly stepping on him amidst insults.. This led to his conductor getting shot! This is another case of police recklessness.. However, the Danfo was breaking the law..

I didn't see this is the news report or link. Where did you see this?

Olaolufred:

[b]I think Nigeria should warn her police to stop these extra judicial killings.

As for the Conductor, they sometimes are mad in the way they address people.

The real scenario surrounding the mis-behavior of the policeman in mufty is like this:

The Danfo driver left the road, goes to the verge or off-road to start bullying all pedestrians who were not on the road in the first place.

The policeman was in mufti, so The Danfo driver threated him with disdain, threatening to hit him off the place. This police like civilian will be so surprised that he was not on the road, yet the danfo driver still came to where he was cursing him and abusing his family on issue that is not supposed to be If he had maintain the regular line on the main road.
The conductors are so stupid while they utter their so rude comments to threaten pedestrians of his readiness for death even when they(Danfo Drvivers/conductors) are absolutely wrong.
This victim was wrong and so unlucky because the Policemen in mufti was not just a civilian they use to harass.

The real story said, they stepped on him(police-in-mufti). It means they wanted him to leave for them to pass,
probably he insisted he was not on the road. so he maintained his standing position in the bus stop or road side. For that action only, Imagine what the Danfo Drivers and his able conductors would have done.
Conductors can even be bold enough to push him off or tell his driver to push him off their way.

While I do not support police's brutality, Most Danfo Drivers and their conductors are heartless with the way they treat pedestrians.
I am not heartless, but trying to be fair and not just allow emotions to becloud me.[/b]

I will give you the benefit of doubt that you are civilized and address you as such.

This is 2012, not 1960. For your first comment, the governors do not "persuade" police commissioners to do things. If that is what you want to sell either to deny responsibility or advocate for state police, please shelve it. You can only tell that to ignorant people. Did he "persuade" the commissioner of police to deploy over 1000 policemen all over Lagos to enforce and seize okada? Tell me how he "persuaded" him please. When he comes out every now and then to promise Lagos state citizens improved security, are you saying he is making such a promise based on "persuassion"? Please the kind of logic you peeps spread sometimes is alarming. How can we expect our leaders to take us seriously when we keep spewing this kind of logic on their behalf. If a policeman mistakingly shoots a member of the governors family, is he going to call the commissioner of police and "persuade" him to act? I tire for your logic

On the second issue, how can you come and talk about 2 wrongs? In what way are they commesurate? In what way are they comparable? Is execution now the punishment for a traffic offence? The whole world is now debating the abolition of the death sentence even for armed robbery and genocide and you are here trying to compare a conductor's dissent and a gruesome cold blooded murder. The mere comparison of the 2 is prepostrous and offensive. How can you say the gun cannot be taken from them? You lot keep giving these excuses and then come on other threads to condemn government. What you are supposed to do as citizens is to rise up in one voice and completely condemn it not find a logic to justify it or douse its gravity. Have you ever seen anywhere in the world were people spew this kind of logic you are spewing except in Nigeria? So we should all now hide inside our houses and not go out since the police is like that and there is nothing we can do about it? You guys make me sad and am sure some other Nigerians reading this thread are equally very sad at these your comments.

Olaolufred:

I like to rub minds if based on mutual respect.
I will never support crime.
I personally had experience with police on tuesday's (06/11/12) evening.
I saw them in front of my resident estate arresting Okada.
I angrilly told them their stay there was illegal.
One of them said to me "you are a fool"
I returned it to him while within my estate gate.
I know how foolish police are.
The Police in Mufti is culpable.
but that will not erase the fact that there are provocations in this case.
As for Fashola,
If persuade is wrong, I think Compel will be right.
If Fashola's family member became a victim, He would make phone calls to people who could assist in bringing the killer to justice. His help will still be tied to the IG, comissioner of police as well as presidency.
He has no direct power to punish any policeman.
If those federal powers do not want to help him bring justice, He will have to turn to the judiciary.
I am not here to fight with words but to explain my own views.
The bolded part is not from me, It is more of the immagination of your own mind.
Thanks.

You want to reason with a vulcaniser?! The guy is an air head..

The welder is so blind to the fact that the drivers driving on the shoulder could have resulted in the death of an innocent pedestrian as well.

He is running his mouth like the police woke up that morning and decided he was going to kill him a conductor that day.. He even went ahead to solicit taking the guns away from the police. I dey laugh!

Rubbing minds with a doofus.. You are better off rubbing your mind on the floor.. At least you are bound to rub off on concrete better than u are likely to rub off on this air head.

Okija_juju:


And I know you have a Mother, Sisters, Aunty and Babe.. I also pray they all get arrested, sent to jail and are gang r`aped and fuc`ked in every part of their body that has a hole or looks like a hole including their eye, ear & nose..

Fuc'king bastard...

Shey the newspapers just put out a story, was it 'FOR NO REASON?'.. Bloody delinquent.. I also pray all the men in your family get gang ra`ped by h`orny gay r`apists..

DaWhiz:

Sorry bro, u'r not making sense with this. A driving offence is a violation not a criminal offence. A crime is defined as a misdemeanor or felony. If you were arrested for vehicular manslaughter. etc a moving violation summons will not equal a crime. So these killings are totally unjustifiable, if anything at all the trigger-happy cops are the criminals. Who the fvck gives the cop the right to shoot around for traffic offences. It's a blatant disregard for law by them. It's so sad these things keep occurring. What kinda govt prioritizes traffic laws over the lives of people?! This is total crap really.
