It was drama in Warri as a Sienna car driver (name withheld) bit off the ear of a Vehicle Inspection Officer, (VIO) identified as Papu Prosper during a heated argument, while they were on patrol in Warri, Delta State.

The incident occurred during an argument over expired particulars in the early hours of Friday, along Eagle Roundabout, by Federal Government College, in Warri.

According to Prosper, “I am a Vehicle Inspection Officer, VIO. We went for a patrol in Warri, Delta State, where we apprehended a driver whose car particulars have expired.

“In the process, my boss told me to follow him to our office in Warri to confirm whether his particulars are up to date or not.

“While following the man, he said he will kill me, that the VIO has done a lot. So he brought out a dagger and was trying to butcher me into pieces.

“I struggled to get out of the vehicle as it was on speed. In the process, I fought him, and he bit off my ear,” He stated.

Speaking further, Prosper said the Sienna driver spat out his (Proper’s) ear, which fell on the ground, left his vehicle and ran away.

While the Sienna is in the custody of VIO, Prosper thanked God for saving him as he beseeched the government to do justice if the Sienna driver is caught.

“I give God all the glory for keeping me alive. And for the man, let the law do what has to be done,” he stated.

Those VIO people are very wicked, especially in Lagos

God1000:
The law is on the side of VIO officer, that driver is in big mess

incogni2o:
You are a Law enforcement officer shouldn't turn you to a Holligan.

Why would you want to endanger yourself to a Government who doesn't care.

Same with Lastma Guys fighting on Duty.

Sorry about the outcome

One should not assault an officer of the law...it is a criminal offence.

Even if Prosper was a civilian, it still is a criminal offcence.

nairalanda1:
If the Sienna driver had his papers in order, none of this would have happened.

Most of the people who argue with VIO...are people with expired papers. (I should know, I have gotten into problems once ). Once papers are in order, VIO won't disturb you self.

Hezzyluv:
VIO no too get wahala na

But u see LASMAN, ABGERO, ROAD SAFETY and POLICE ARE ALL mean. Especially Policeman.

Nigeria Policemen are not your friend!!!

incogni2o:
My Point is that, You shouldn't engage in a fight for the Government, it's not worth it.

What if He was killed in the process.

Don't struggle with motorists, You don't know what they are going through at the moment.

There should be better ways to bring people without complete Papers to book
