My Friend Experience With Nigeria Police In Abuja, Please Help by HRich(m): 6:42am On Oct 19, 2017 |
I was robbed last wednesday by two men in a taxi I entered
at Banex junction. They took me to the lonely untarred road
to NNPC Jahi and took my phones and all my money plus
other valuables while pointing their knife and claim they have
a gun.
Reaching the police station to make a report; the Nigeria
police told me I am lucky I was not raped and that they did
not butcher me for fun or ritual. They said "they are good
robbers" because they gave me #1000 for my transportation,
that I should be giving testimony.
When I insist on writing a statement and that they should
open a case file and start investigation; they laughed and
looked at me as if I am an alien.
I was told to pay money for the file and pen and paper to
write on. Guess the shock on my face worked cos I was
given the writing materials free with defence statements that
"they fund themselves " and because of the trauma you went
through.
Then the shocker!
The police said I should "go and trace the robbers, When I
do, I should call them to do the arrest".
Does it mean Nigeria police only arrest and discharge?
They explained further........"Those robbers operate at that
location especially on rainy days. That particular team has
moved to another location, they rotate. They don't have a
shop or home there so we cannot arrest them"!
Chinekem!
My questions:
1. Since you know these much information about their
operation; why allow them continue to do their business in
that location?
2. If I am to take the risk and expenses of tracing and
tracking down the robbers; why should I call the Police to
come and arrest and make money off my sweat?
3. How do I trace and track armed robbers?
4. Why should I pay tax which also fund the police after this
experience?
5.What other options do I have than find any means
necessary to protect myself in this country since the force
have failed?
6. What exactly do we the Citizens enjoy in this country?
As much as we try to blame the Police; we should try also to
reason their predicament.
If you are in Abuja, please avoid Banex junction especially on
a rainy evening/night.
Stay safe and have a great day. |
