Nigeria Police Officer Sacked Over Youtube Video by ajetii(m): 1:03am On Aug 09, 2013 |
The world is indeed contracting into a village size by the day! See where the news of an apparent local issues has reached plus Nairaland has helped in snowballing the issue. The culprit has been brought to justice. Kudos to nairaladers http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-23620433 The video received thousands of hits online, as Tomi Oladipo reports
A Nigerian policeman has been sacked after being caught on film apparently trying to extort $150 (£100) from a motorist accused of a traffic offence. The footage - secretly filmed on a Lagos highway - received thousands of hits on YouTube and has been replayed on Nigerian television channels. In the film, Sgt Chris Omeleze suggests he is part of a wider corrupt network. But Nigeria's central police command insists otherwise. It sacked him less than a day after the video emerged. Correspondents say being asked for money by traffic police for real or imagined traffic offences is a common experience for many Nigerians. It is much rarer for perpetrators to be caught and penalised. 'Reasonable' sum The film - which has received more than 123,000 hits on YouTube - shows Sgt Omeleze inside the car trying to negotiate a bribe with the driver. |
