Do you know what is bullion van on transit? Any bullion van heading to CBN have money on transit and are always on high alert. And their siren is their primary source of alert while on the move.


They were not on siren Sir. Even the police officers with the van acted like nothing happened, nobody cared self

After trailing them you should have gone to create an attention seeking scene at the gate demanding to speak to the head of security and further.

You can still try this

Get a good lawyer as quickly as possible if you want to follow it up legally.. But i doubt if you were completely out of the road. Here in Nigeria, drivers don't pull over properly, they park leaving a part of the car on the road, and it can lead to what happened to you..

I have gotten my self a lawyer and he said I have a good case, I have pictures of the whole incident from a passer-by.

Thanks for all your advice, I have gotten a lawyer and he said I have a good case with the evidence at hand. I have pictures of the incident. We are filling the charges and I will personally copy CBN to it. It really painful when your encounter this type of case after a legit hustle. No matter the cost, I will make sure I drag this case. Thanks for all your good inputs.

CCTV footage from shoprite is a long process. every bullion van has a security camera stationed right in front either at the dashboard or rearview mirror.
OK. Thanks

Yesterday around 12:30pm, I was on my way to ShopRite Enugu, on getting to the gate, I was blocked by the kids selling nose masks, so I applied brake and wind down trying to purchase one for myself.

Unknown to me there was a bullion Van approaching, I was not really blocking the road but the bullion Van just from no where hit my car from behind and caused a lot of damage to my headlights and bumper, and I was bleeding from the nose too, before I got down, they drove off with police escort.

I was advised by people around not to pursue them but after a while I tracked them into the CBN bank in Enugu. ....

My car is a Toyota Corolla 2015, Please how do I get this people to pay because I just bought the car and I don't think I was really blocking the road. The bullion Van driver did this on purpose.
Getting a lawyer is a waste of money. Jus forget it.

Please thread with caution. It was wise that you did not give them a hot chase.
Cases like this can easily switch and turn against you that you had the intention of robbing them.
If you can cater for the cost of the repair, I will suggest you count this as one of your losses and move on.
If you intend pursuing it, be ready because the Police and the Apex Bank will play dirty.

Get a good lawyer. Their insurance should do the needful. Third party insurance is compulsory for all vehicles in the country.

My brother, even Governor's convey pack for bullion van to pass simply because they are carrying the treasure of the nation, you packing in their front could be a case of suspected robbery attack and the driver had to do what he did to escape your road block thereby averting robbery. Think well before pressing any charges sir.

You did not park well, if you parked well it wouldn't be the back they will hit you from. Go and fix your car

If you know you don't have the financial muscle, video and picture evidences to pull a challenge to them, just don't push further. Just pick yourself together and fix your car whose cost should be lesser compared to a lawsuit. I know most bullion vans drive with reckless abandon, but since the bullion van seems to have no business inside Enugu shoprite, how then did you pull over without having your car's trunk on the road and yet got hit by them?

No worry them go retire one day, and they would regret their action in service, so just repair your car, and leave them.. Don't pity them when they are killed by robbers,bandits,sickness, they are reaping their evil deeds

U will approach any of the insurance companies, give them the value of Ur vehicle and a copy of Ur vehicle license....they will charge u premium and require u to pay into their company account.

After payment they will issue u a motor insurance policy and motor certificate which is an evidence of insurance.

When u have an accident just send them a mail through the email addresses provided in the policy doument and they will process it for u.
thank you very much Sir.

Can you afford a good lawyer and continually fund him for over two years?

If you have eye witness that can attest to what you said and you should have taken pictures of the bullion van too

You can get justice against government institutions but you must have the funds to pursue your case

I don't think the biggest issue here is fund. To me, it's evidence. The OP doesn't seem to have any. No picture. No evidence, unless perhaps the incident was captured on CCTV, which the OP did not state. Some are talking about insurance. Yes, it makes things easier but not necessarily more straight forward. Your Third Party insurance won't fix your car in the event of an accident. It's for the offending party if the fault is not yours. If you're at fault, you're on your own. Comprehensive insurance will, but they would still thoroughly investigate the accident. So same questions being asked would still apply. If the fault is not yours, they won't pay but they may help chase the faulty party. If you were at fault, they would fix but would raise your premium on renewal.

Happy weekend guys.

You deserve a review. So I've decided to leave one here: hope it counts for good business.

Online transactions could be scary and discouraging, especially in Nigeria. But *Instantcashexchange* is totally different in all aspects.

*Tested and trusted*.

Transaction took less than 5 minutes and the vendor in charge was extremely reasonable and friendly.

*I strongly recommend the platform 100%*
