Policeman Threatens To Kill Nigerian Journalist, Points Gun At Him (Photos)

By Wisdom Nwedene

A Nigerian policeman, on Friday, threatened to kill the Thecable investigative journalist, Femi Owolabi at GTB branch on Ring Road, Ibadan.

IGBERE TV gathered that trouble started when the Journalist found out that the exit/entrance by the parking lot was blocked as security operatives were trying to make a way for the motorcade of a yet to be identified ‘VIP.’

According to him, "I came by the roadside, and just behind this police officer (pictured here), I muttered, asking why the process was taking that long. He looked in my direction, pointed his gun at me and shouted “to hell with anybody who say anything here!”

"Of course, I wasn’t gonna take that bullshit. “To hell with you, too!” I threw it back at him. And before I could blink a next, about three other of his colleagues had jumped at me—pushing me, dragging me by my shirt and asking what my problem was. My voice rose to a scream, demanding to know why this policeman would wanna shoot at a citizen of the republic whose ‘offense’ was to ask why this blockage at the bank’s entrance? "

" Soon, the bank customers around weighed in and brought me out of the grab of these alcohol reeking officers. "

"As I made to leave, this policeman (pictured here) returned to me. I was seated in the car, and he pointed his muzzle at my head screaming “esu fe lomi loni (the devil wants to use me today).” My heart sank many times when I heard the cock of the gun. I would find my breath when a superior, immediately, pulled him back. "

"I am contacting the necessary authorities about this matter, but I wanna put this here, so we all would note his face. He does not deserve this uniform!".

I'm not Yoruba either but I think you are not yoruba

Nigeria has descended into a situation where chaos and anarchy reigns supreme.

Absolute disregard for civilian’s life.

Buhari‘s Govt has failed in this aspect

dude don't start that shiit with me, do i look like those tribalist here? check my posts. una think say na every nairalander get time to dey carry tribe for head to the extent of claiming another tribe just to insult one tribe, i don't roll like that. from everything we read and see online i can say we yoruba are cowards and our politicians are only concerned about their political ambitions and not the masses that needs them more. even our amotekun is politicised. If we have something like ESN here in the west i will gladly join. PS i hate all nigerian politicians irrespective of tribe, i wish they can all drop dead one by one even to my local govt chairman so we can reset the country.

Cc, Lalasticlala

End nigeria before nigeria ends you...

The police man suppose slap you sefff...idddiiooot

We've been recruiting thieves and thugs into the Nigerian police and Army for years, now we're seeing the results

I wish you got his name tagged well enough, but nevertheless, since you know the location and the time of this incident, the authorities who posted him there will probably identify him when push comes to shoves. Brief a good fearless lawyer to file some necessary papers on your behalf for attempted murder, if you said he actually pointed the nozzle of his gun to your head. I wish someone around had got a picture of that too. But nevertheless, do the needful

Na so una take support bad thing support till e reach una turn.

Leave fulanis alone

And how does the picture of a police officer waking on the street and a dude sitting at the comfort of his office translate to "policeman pointing gun on a journalist "

awon agents of mischief and chaos .

Every John Doe now wants to jump on the bandwagon to vilify our Police, even for matters that don't make sense. A Bank is a high risk location and this third rate Journalist should know better than confronting lawfully armed men in a Bank premise. There are several tactics armed robbers deploy to rob a bank and the Police could easily have interpreted such challenge as a threat. Everything for clout on social media.

Politicians dey loot us.......

Olopa dey shoot us.......


This country na wa oooooo..

If it's the Nigeria Police Farce uniform he deserves it. That uniform is reserved for the most idiotic and unintelligent creatures walking on two legs. If you're talking about a normal police uniform then he doesn't deserve that.

BabaOwen:

That's because the original reason of forming the Nigeria Police Farce was not to protect the citizens, but to protect government officials and their hangers-on.
