Some police officers deployed to curb kidnapping along the now dreaded Ife-Ibadan hightway, South-west Nigeria, were on Monday caught extorting motorists.

The policemen stationed at the outskirt of Ibadan, Ikire, Gbongan and Ile-Ife demanded bribe from the driver of the vehicle conveying this reporter and 17 other passengers on Monday evening.

The journey lasted an hour and 15 minutes.

Some of the motorists who earlier spoke with Us confirmed the habitual extortion by officers adding that these have heightened now with additional road blocks mounted along the road.

While the police officers in the outskirts of Ibadan and Ikire collected the naira notes discreetly without questioning the driver, the ones at Gbongan and Ile-Ife did not.

An officer at Gbongan, with the inscription Akosoba A on his uniform, collected a 100-naira note from the driver and gave a change of fifty naira.

Also, a policeman in Ile-Ife, who appeared in a camouflage, instructed the motorist to park for raising a question, but changed his mind after a fifty-naira note was slid into his hands.

We have a long way to go as a nation... both the policemen and the driver are all involved in giving and taking of bribe..

Who do us this kind strong thing?

Idiotics police officers everywhere.

I honestly don't understand why this is coming as a news at this time. This has been there as far ten years ago.

Police checkpoints are so many on the Ibadan-Ife expressway that you'd wonder what is happening, and the worst part is that they never stop taking turns in extorting public bus drivers.

Ok

I think this reporter is a foreigner, it is a know secret in Nigeria that NPF can't do without exporting motorist /taking bribes

It's now a normal thing on our roads na! Even before kidnapping started they have been on it.

This is it. Yeah, that's how far we have come in this country.

The government look a way why these so called security men rob the citizens with confidence.

They are every where, you see them extorting money from poor Nigerians. Motorcycle riders are not left out of this.

This Nation needs urgent divine attention. Forget about those in power right now, they empower these criminals in uniform to carry out the extortion.


The guys talk and act like they were forced to join the Police force. If you think yhu ain't well paid, why not channel yhur complaints to the appropriate authority?
Why put the load on poor Nigerians?

The headline is already giving me headache.

Na wa oh
Yoruba will say, Eni a ba feyinti
This can only happen in southwest, nothing of such if you're driving to north

R these ones new in Nigeria its a norm already

Are you sure they will not also demand bribe from the kidnappers and give them cover?

Is Buhari to be blamed for this too
