The Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC) is shocked and disturbed by a recent incident involving one of AMAC staff members under the mobile advertisement unit at AP Plaza at Wuse 2 and a suspected military officer.

On 2nd of May 2025, about 1pm, AMAC staff members were allegedly assaulted by the individual with tear gas and a harmful object while carrying out official duties within the council's jurisdiction.

AMAC as a government vehemently condemns this act of violence and demands a thorough and transparent investigation into the matter.

“We are working closely with the relevant authorities, including the military and law enforcement agencies, to ensure that the perpetrator is brought to justice and made to face the full weight of the law.

“The safety and well-being of AMAC staff members are of utmost importance to the council.

“We will not tolerate any form of harassment, intimidation, or assault on our personnel while they are carrying out their official duties.

“The council is committed to creating a safe and secure working environment for all its employees.

“We urge members of the public who may have witnessed or have information about this incident to come forward and report to the appropriate authorities.

“We also call on the public to report any similar incidents of harassment or assault involving council staff or any other individuals to the relevant authorities.

“The AMAC is committed to upholding the rule of law and ensuring that all individuals within its jurisdiction are treated with dignity and respect. We will continue to work tirelessly to promote peace, security, and development in the Abuja Municipal Area”.

From the trending video, it's actually the AMAC guys beating and teargasing the man. Which kain lie be this

Well deserved. You can only quote me if you have had an encounter with these AMAC touts in uniform, else keep your fecking opinion to yourself. Until they retrain those touts and teach them how interact with Abuja residents in a civil manner, they will keep collecting at any given opportunity. Shior!

Kundus to the military man

In Naija, you can't even believe the truth. The lies always sounds better and appears convincing.

Those AMAC guys dey always over do, you guys did not explain to us what you people did to him.

Suspected. Typical Nigerian English

Suspected, everytime suspected. Kokoro is still suspevted

Military I know but wetin be amac?

Veryyyy beautiful.
Let the officer paste aza,50k for am.
Those bastards harassed my uber driver cos the guy was jjc

See the AMAC Touts sounding humble. I am sure they would have harassed the military personnel. Those guys should be banned from the streets of Abuja.
They have now started profiling certain cars, if you use Toyota Corolla, Sienna, Hilux just avoid any route they stay.

Well deserved Beating

Amac too do sha..
Hope both will learn a lesson from this.
Officeer no beat person.
Amac staff be professional.

They will sort them self out las las..
Una good morning

Thank God say them no shot the idi*t

This is very satisfying to see. The way these guys harass motorists on the road, this incident is pound for pound.

From the video I saw on twitter or x, the case seems to be the opposite. Imagine three AMAC staff attacking one man yet they couldn't withstand him.

Hoodlums claiming to be assaulted, laughable.

AMAC Touts you mean? Serves them right

They quickly released Press Statement because a "suspected" military officer was involved. Imagine what we ordinary civilians go through at the hands of these callous touts!

Ok

Everybody dey use his or her power

AMAC will always deploy Crude, Untrained, Uncouth, Rude, Haggard looking Touts on the field.
You can't encounter them without being embarrassed.
They are not different from the Ówomida of the other side.

One man beat 3 AMAC touts
all of a sudden they suspect he must be Military

Quidsin:
