https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1302565086582842&id=100004880885144
(i quote verbatim as published in Facebook) : "This morning 4th January 2020 around 10am, as I was headed to Kenyatta in Enugu here.
I highlighted from the bus, I saw a police officer chasing after a young man who was walking down the pedestrian lane.
The policeman intercepted this boy, searched him and reached to his phone( iPhone) he was asking why are you collecting my phone.
The officer was landing punches on his face like a criminal.
Before 30seconds the 3 officers rushed to this boy hitting him black and blue.. The GOC as I head a man dressed in orange traditional called him (the officer leading the team), the GOC was virile hitting the boy with his gun saying the boy was dragging their guns!
This was happening around 10:15am .
The reason is that he refused to be searched and also to unlock his phone
They labelled the guy a fraduster(yahoo boy) without any evidence.
The man dressed in orange traditional said he is a police officer and wanted to settle this issue. They threaten to handcuff him and take him to EFCC.
When asked what transpired between them.
The officers said he refused them going through his phone and was fighting them.. To the record of this video you can see that the boy never raised an arm against any of the 3 policemen.
The name of this young man is Justice Obasi, an interior designer (0903 007 5***)
Please share until it gets to the right authority

If you don't charge the woman to court, we assume police have taken bribe again.

American government forced your president to obey Nigerian constitution. A big shame to him.

Bad journalist, why must you publish the guy's phone number completely? Well i blame the the guy coming out of KADUNA hibernation.

It's against the law signed by GEJ for your husband or anybody to send you packing without divorce.

Without divorce, your husband cannot send you packing in Nigeria because GEJ singed a law that forbids some one chasing you out of home.

I didn't see him driving cos it's a still photograph, not video. Lie ministers.

NCC is a toothless bulldog, they must be reformed, they are more corrupt than NDDC.

Just sue the school and her VC for everything.

WHAT THE LAW SAYS ABOUT NEXT-OF-KIN IN NIGERIA

Are you among those that think by giving a name to financial institutions (bank for example) as next-of-kin you have chosen that person to automatically inherit your wealth in the event of your demise? In other words, do you think by merely picking someone as your next-of-kin you have made that person a beneficiary to your wealth or entitlement(s) in the event of your death?"Let us attempt a little legal analysis based on two factors: whether the deceased has a Will (a document written by a deceased when he was alive that prescribes how his property is to be shared when he dies) or whether he dies without a will

In law when a person dies leaving behind a will, he is said to have died testate. In such a circumstance, Issue of next-of-kin becomes useless. The reason is that the wealth of the deceased will simply be shared in line with the contents of the will.

The position is still the same even where the deceased dies without leaving a will. The position is that when a person dies without a will, the question as to who to inherit his wealth is determined by law, that is to say, customary law, or Islamic law or English Law or the Administration of Estates law (or equivalent legislation) not whom the deceased mentioned in his bank or place of work as next-of-kin.

How then do we know the law to be applied in sharing the property of the deceased? The law to be applicable in distributing the estate of the deceased shall be determined by the incidence of marriage of the deceased. If a deceased contracted a statutory marriage, succession to his wealth will be effected in accordance with either the English law or the Administration of Estates Law (or equivalent legislation), depending on the jurisdiction. See Obuzez V. Obuzez (2007) 10 NWLR (Pt. 1043) 430.

Under English Law and the administration of estate laws of various state, the surviving spouse together with the children of the deceased inherit his estate to the exclusion of every other person. The parents of the deceased takes next after the surviving spouse and children, followed by brothers and sisters of the full blood, brothers and sisters of half blood, grandparents, aunties and uncles of full blood relation to the parents of the deceased etc. See Kekereogun & Ors v. Oshodi (1971) LPELR-1686(SC) subject however to contrary provisions under the administration of estate laws of various states.

Where however the deceased contracted a customary marriage, then customary law will determine who will inherit the property of the deceased. That is to say in the circumstance, heirs are those who are under native law and custom entitled to inherit his estate. For Muslims, Islamic law determines who to inherit the deceased estate.

Therefore, under the Nigerian law of intestate succession, one cannot choose his heir under the pretext of next-of-kin; the law imposes heirs on him. For example it is the surviving spouse and children of an intestate who married under the Act that are his heirs. The intestate cannot therefore, by naming only one of them or any of his other blood relatives his next-of-kin, scheme them out of inheritance as the act of naming his next-of-kin does not amount to testamentary disposition.

In view of the foregoing, there is nothing special about next-of-kin as far as succession is concerned. "Next-of-kin is merely the first contact point if anything happens to you. He is someone empowered to make decisions for you in times of emergency or where you are not readily available or unable to make the decisions yourself." - E. Kalu Ekpu Esq. Your Next of kin is someone empowered to provide necessary information about you where needed such as confirming your identity. He is also someone positioned to make medical decisions such as providing consent for a medical procedure. At best, what a next-of-kin can do after the demise of the deceased is perhaps to ensure that necessary steps are taken towards obtaining letter of administration from the probate. The typical Nigerian's conception of the term, "next-of-kin" is therefore erroneous.

A next-of-kin can inherit only if he is named in a Will as a beneficiary or by his status he is entitled by law to inherit but not actually because he is named as the next-of-kin of the deceased in a bank or place of work.

Wait make i give him one more slap

Be careful before they trade your kid for your 4matic surprise and gift.

A Nairaland Forum visitor narrated his story to me and i quote him thus:
"A Medical doctor from OPD Section in Abia State's biggest Federal Medical Center (FMC) Umuahia, Shockingly, to my amazement, forecast and planted a dream in my head:
The doctor prescribed a drug for me earlier this year, of which the doctor warned me that i will be having nightmares, the doctor even predicted the type of nightmares i will be having: "If your father is dead", the doctor said, "You may see him on the first dose of this drug but don't panic", the doctor continued, "It will not be easy but the drugs wouldn't hurt you, just be ready for all kinds of horror dreams". As the physician predicted, i saw my late dad in many episodes of my dreams the first night i took the medicine.
As i was warned by the physician : You may see your best friends or family member trying to kill you while on this drugs but don't misinterpret it, as it is a normal side effects of this drug. All this nightmares came to pass. I became afraid to sleep whem i couldn't face the constant unavoidable horror night dreams. One thing was sure: Non of the episodes was a lucid dream.
Now, as we are in 21st century (where anything can happen, my question is) what if some prayer house ministries or native doctors are already taking this advantage and sneaking something that can cause a known nightmare in your concoction and tell you exactly what you will see in your dreams.
If human can manipulate dreams scientifically how much more supernatural beings?
Your experience or contribution may help me solve this riddle.
