You are part of the people contributing to police corruption. What did you pay for? Were you charged to any court? Did any judge fine you any amount for your offense? Here you are proudly boasting online that you bribed Nigeria police. Well done.
EXOUSIAng:


Well from violating traffic regulations now he has added manslaughter and resisting arrest to the list.
Blame the police for whatever offence he commited which warranted his arrest and blame me for not supporting him dragging the steering.
I followed one way from Northwest filling station so as to get into my VGC residence last week, I was caught, they got into my car took me to their station, I paid some money and they let me go, no need to follow anybody dragg steering when I know I have done something wrong.

The bus driver was arrested they were heading to the station, on the way the driver started dragging steering wheel. Obviously the police officer was the one driving.....

What I am asking myself now how a human with functional brain would blame the police for the accident?
Your type are the reason for the moral degradation in our society.

Did we read the same report?

Abi you are a witness?

The driver will be prosecuted quite alright but is the police officer supposed to enter his car when he has a plate number or when he could have been arrested and his car towed?

Besides the law have ordered them not to enter person car
You talking as if you don't know how crazy Nigerians are .. he might not be the owner of the bus sef ...

There's a difference between integrity and reputation.

The lack of integrity either from the police or the driver leaded to this dismay.


Led not leaded.

I wonder how we reason in this country, something we would never try elsewhere,a police officer arrested you for traffic offense and is taking the vehicle to the station, instead of the driver to obey as a decent citizens and amicably sort things out at the station,the driver chooses to attempt driven the vehicle and the police officer to somewhere else!,now if you were the police officer what will come to your mind?,how is the police officer sure he was going to be safe afterwards? between the dragging of the steering n the commission of the traffic offense which occurred first n who should really be blamed please?, vehicle numbers are taken when n where the vehicle is fleeing but in this case the vehicle was already apprehended,to me the driver should be held completely responsible for everything,if we keep supporting individuals to break the laws n chooses to castigate the police in every situation,I bet you all we will all bear the brunt,yes the police may not be perfect just as neither of us is,but we need to be very objective in our views over issues if we really want our country to improve n get better.
In a state of absolute lawlessness, it is criminal to be law abiding. So you want to arrest someone for a traffic offense and you also trust the offender to drive you in his/her vehicle to your station willingly?

Irrespective of the motive for the arrest. Sometimes, it's best to de-escalate situations like these. Follow them to the station, max they will waste your time and collect some change, after which you are free to go....
[/quote] So u think Nigeria police we just collect some change from someone when they get to their station abi? Same police that believe someone have no single right once they get to their station, same police that will turn someone into a criminal once they get to their station and rip them off dried, is what u are saying they will just collect small change?

Shay police get drivers, what stops them from arresting the car and drive it to the station themself? Because they can't said they don't know what common Nigerians can do after all the oppression that they, the government and other force group have melted on common Nigerians over the years.

If the police had arrested the driver n tried to take only his vehicle to the station,the driver would have caused so much drama instead of obedience and the public would have supported him just as they are doing here,I mean most times I wonder if we assume that things work well in other countries by magic, it's this very negative n lawless attitude we have imbibid so much here that gives Nigerians a bad name even in lesser African countries.

It's high time LASMAN is scrapped in Lagos state. Or better still they should be reduced to ordinary traffic warden.

Things work in other countries because they have developed a culture of how to behave. Trusting their police officers and other government agencies to do the right thing.
I don't know too much information about the functions of the Nigerian police but I like to think traffic offense isn't one of them. I like to assume protection of lives and property is a major function of the police but it is the other way round for the Nigerian police. They make sure innocent lives are lost on a daily basis.
My final submission to you. Who is the offender? The driver or the vehicle?

I no fit even allow make police carry me or any vehicle I dey go station. The arresting officers go just disappear for inside station with the car keys and documents. Them go con dey transfer you from one police man to another. If we no fit settle am for road, na there we go sleep and I go make sure say I obstruct traffic.

The bastard in Black , thugs in uniform are at it again , stupid no one enermy of this nation

Funny... Police are bad Police are bad. These set of individuals were picked among us to join the Force. So they aren't different from us. U and I in black would do more grin
So what if the driver had followed them to the station?. I lives were lost agreed, why is it the Police that should let go? Not like the driver is just being chased, a police officer is in the bus, and u want to change direction? Helloooooooo ? U expect the officer inside the bus to watch and smile like zombie and do nothing abi?
Sentiment seems to be clouding our sense of judgement in this country presently.
Pls Tinubu should scrap Police grin and every other paramilitary Agencies grin and leave us with the Military alone grin,, so that this OP would be happy..

To the Nigerian police it is the Driver they will say is at fault. They will point all blames to him.
They will never take responsibility. That is very stupid.

And do what?… when the werey can just drive to the nearest marketplace, find where they sell car plates and replace his own… he doesn’t even need to do that sef, our security architecture is so feeble that once he escapes their graps they never getting him again

To all you over sabi citizens out there, learn to follow rules and regulations on the road and stop trying your antics on our security guys… I’m sure that stupid man must have ran a red light or isn’t supposed to be behind the wheel in the first place and the officers tried to do their job, nonsense people everywhere!
