SP Benjamin Hundeyin had tweeted this:

When the police do random search of people in a crime-prone area and recover guns, it is, ‘Kudos to the police.’

When during a similar search, the searched flips it and makes a scene as a gimmick for getting off, it is, ‘Why are the police harassing young men?’

Then, Oluwatroy replied him with a story:

Benjamin let me tell you a story.

Some years ago I lived in a relatively calm part of Lagos Island and I played rugby every Sunday with my younger brother. One evening after the game my brother went to buy bread for my mum, as he walked back to the gate of their house,

Your men rushed at him and threw him into a black Maria truck. He didn't do anything, just that he was young. Apparently there was a raid of young men going on from street to street. How I found him was that he had his phone with him and he called me to tell me. What had happened

He was in tears and his voice was shaking as we spoke. I had to rush from my apartment and started going from street to street asking people if they'd seen the police vans pass-by. My mum too came out of her own house to search for the boy she had asked to help buy bread.

I went to from street to street and then landed at Lion Building after almost 2 hours of searching on foot. That was where I finally found him. Thank God for my church connections as the Priest came too.

By the time we identified him and pulled him from the crowd, he had bruises

He was visibly shaking and I just thank God that we found him that night. I don't know if my mum would have been OK if we hadn't. I know for sure that it left it shaken. By the way, I had an LLM exam to write the next day. Safe to say I flunked that one.

Since then, whenever my brother calls me in the evening or at night I have flashes of that evening. I am terribly scared for him.

@BenHundeyin SARS had to go for reasons such as mine. Police brutality has to stop.

We cannot continue to act like this dysfunction is OK.

I am a Lawyer with almost 10years PQE and I have seen all sorts done by the Police.

Your men can treat people with decency and some respect.

You guys just see young men and women doing well and you immediately assume it is ill-gotten wealth.

You celebrate Majek and Raskimon's

Dreadlocks but when young men carry it you start to find excuses to search their vehicles.

No law and order, just fire brigade approach to your interactions with people.

Yesterday I witnessed 2 Stop and Search on my way to Ladipo in a 60meter distance. Practically 2 speedbumps

Apart. One was asking for car papers and flagging only clean looking cars. The other less than 60metres away was asking every vehicle for lunch money.

How did either attempt to glorify the image of the Police?

@BenHundeyin stop with the inciting tweets. You are laughing at us.

When nothing is funny.

SP Benjamin Hundeyin should be replaced, immediately.

He has over stayed his welcome as the NPF spokeman.

Always tweeting nonsense

Oya, hundeman respond.

This man's head must be very heavy, carrying police matters.

Interesting....

Damnnn niggar

The way they are harrasing boys now ehnnn in Benin city is something else

It started about four days ago

Something should be done

If not another endsars protest is imminent

Until you Go and recover GUNS from ALH. ASARI DOKUBO, I won't believe police is working.

Everyday now Asari is flaunting his guns yet police are not doing anything.

Q

Hnmm

Hmmm
Not really sure we're ready for this discussion.. too many issues in this country dont know which one to prioritize... Definitely not this

Land for sale -ushafa abuja

Ben 10 tenure is finished soon he will be irrelevant

Legal thieves on Uniform...I hate them with passion...PH is now their Den

We hope it gets better.

⛽️ is over 500 naira

Just because Hundeyin is literate/educated does not make him enlightened and wise.

There is an enormous difference. He only knows how to read and write.

Terrible

Brutality!
Smack down move! Babitality! .. e finish Benjamin, even him go know say BEN no MEAN 10

Just terrible

Nigerian Police is lawless tbh

Police force is the most corrupt. Check out my post on my bitter experience of police brutality.

9125476213 Palmpay please I don't want to die in vain. Help my family please no amount is too small.... Save a soul and you will never regret your decision thank you so much

The enemies police has created for themselves in this country is too much

A great response from the Lawyer. Those useless Police PROs will not want to admit that their officials are mostly unprofessional ediots who are threats to citizens even when they know it's the truth.. Nincompoops!

Normal Normal, e no suppose better for every policeman wey no do hin work with diligence, even the family join 💯✌️

Let me tell you.. police is not your friend....in Nigeria

Hundeyin always spitting from d left side of his mouth. Nigerian police are all uniform thieves

And small time they we come out to tell us that police is your friends. POLICE CAN NEVER BE MY FRIEND, I REJECT IT.

It's so nice, someone needs to tell them the truth.

You will have thought that endSARS should bring and 'end' to these things but unfortunately half the citizens made otherwise and in that confusion the police as an institution fell through the cracks. Once again the citizens of Nigeria cannot collectively define good governance, cannot agree on how to craft it.... so unending stories follow.... and impossible tasking in asking a leopard to change is spots.

This Benjamin of a thing is the most useless police spokesperson in Nigeria today... one of the thugs in the police force
