Good for you. Don't be a p**sy next time. Stand your ground and resist any attempt to take away your hard earned money fraudulently. The police nowadays are just like every other criminal. Know this and deal with them accordingly.

Absolutely, what you stated are fact that cannot be erased. You're so very right on this. Nevertheless, I was told by a friend and an officer too that I should be vigilant from now henceforth, that they might be planning to set me up within days/weeks from now due to what transpired. I'm quite worried.

Hello Nairalanders, about 4 day's ago I created a thread, regarding the extortion of 80,000 naira from me illegally by the police, even when my papers are 100% correct as I did a new plate number after buying the car, so everything regarding the papers are on my name, and all Intact.

For those who missed the thread, here's the link :

https://www.nairaland.com/8466150/police-took-80000-me-yesterday

After creating the thread, It immediately got to the front page and It generated reactions, almost every one (99.9%) of those that commented were against the police because what transpired was truly an extortion. I got countless numbers of positive advices.

Including going on twitter and tag some important personnel on the police force, while trying to do so by opening the profile that I went through, I saw some police numbers on one of the posts by the police, there was a post to call some numbers when one get harassed by the police unnecessarily.

I copied the numbers and gave It a call, they were 5 numbers, and only the very first one I called was what sorted out my predicament.

I called the number and narrated everything to the man that picked up ( Detective Barnabas from CRU) THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH SIR. So, he asked me the location where It happened and the time, he asked me to forward the screenshot of the transaction regarding I and the POS girl I made the transferred to, In which the POS girl stand was directly at the back of the station, and I did forwarded It to his whatsapp.

He acted so very swiftly, he swinged Into action with immediate effect, I called him yesterday and I got my complete money back today.

After telling him the area It happened and exact location, also the station they took my car to. He called the area commander with immediate effect, and the area commander swinged into action immediately.

I was called to come to the station this afternoon to identify the men involved, but unfortunately they weren't around. I went home hoping to go tomorrow as told, to come and identify them.

But to my utmost surprise, the police in charge of the case called me barely an hour ago that they've recovered back my money, he gave me cash, 80,000 completely.

I want to use this medium to thank Nairaland and Nairalanders, you made this possible, I would not have gotten anything from that money if not for you all, coupled with the fact that I would also get more future harrassments.

Below are photos of the cash I was refunded, in full.

Thank you Nairaland and Nairalanders, you've done what no one else have done for me, In all my life and day to day existence, thank you so very much.

I greatly appreciate.

Thank you 🙏

Be smart all the time.
Pursue your matter not through confrontation or resistance but through subtle means like this fellow did.
Mind you, being armed is the difference.

That's the power of social media. Moreover the police CRU is very active when you have an injustice case against the police just reach out to them.

They are more on the civilian side of the issues.

In the USA, they have internal affairs who oversees the Police dept. Once your matter reach there, go and start doing fasting and prayer o.

You shouldn't be worried, just keep the CRU man u called phone number handy. Also they too are afraid, they are also on watchlist. Any misconduct from them towards u will backfire, because everyone is aware of this incident.

So what now happened to the armed robbers in uniform?
I guess they are back to the road to continue their robbery but in a smarter way.

Pls insist publicly via their social media handles that you want to know publicly the punishment or disciplinary actions meted out to them otherwise this nonsense will just continue unabated.

Kudos and an applause to inspector Barnabas for helping him. We have good people with good heart and clean intentions in the Nigerian police. It’s our politicians that are taking advantage of them

So what is the problem that A-looter Propaganda Conmen, APC have with social media after they used it to scam us into the shege that ebilokan fraudulently packaged as change in 2015?

Fraudulently packaged his cluelessly expired northerner to replace southerner Jonathan and ended 16 years of PDP deregulation and privatisation capitalism that gave us high employment productivity for widespread prosperity!

Glad this got sorted out, but this is not good enough. The police needs to show that it is disciplining the erring officers, else things like this will keep going on.

Imagine if you did not have access to social media?

Re: I Have Gotten Back The 80,000 Naira The Police Extorted From Me Illegally by nwirinedu(m): 10:43am On Jul 07, 2025

Always have the police CRU number of your state handy, they have no right to extort you.
Number plates are supposed to be issued same-day after payment.

You can't be punished for the lazyness of the license staff.

Note that we have many criminals wearing police uniforms carrying guns on our roads, expose them.

If you don't see a name tag or means of identification they re criminals period.!

Hi Seun, I think you need to reconsider the 40 character limit because it's clear engagement has fallen low, and this could be the chief reason why. This is a forum, not a social media site.
