I certainly wish fervently that you one day fall into the hands of Nigeria one day with a story you'll beg to believe is a dream; then I would see what your sentiments are. The OP is unduly polite sef. To me, Nigerian society is a jungle, with most people as apes. They've not reached 2016 human level. A zoo is an organised place

What did u write up there?

waxxydude:
Sorry i brought ibos into this, but, it's a common thing for them. I'm from the ND, i don't like the going's in here (Nigeria) - this administration and all, but calling the house i live in a zoo? How do yo think neigbhours will look at you?

Sis think this through, there are better names, better ways to vent your frustration, but Zoo?

limeta:
My guy you a good person don,t get me wrong.
But good people die, why bad people live prosper and multiply.
You need to travel out to see human countries .
A zoo is a zoo... sorry

I have always read news of police brutality online but never fully understood what the victims went through until I had a first hand experience on Wednesday, 13th July, 2016.
On that very day, which has become a day I will never forget in my life, I was headed to jibowu to assist my sister get a bus back to the east after her visit to Lagos. Just before the park area, there was a police checkpoint and as I was walking towards the park with my sister, one of the police officers at the checkpoint signaled me to come. When I went to answer him, he demanded for my phone, I brought it out, he collected it and started scrolling through my contacts. The next thing I heard was "You are a criminal! Wetin foreign number dey do for your phone?……...". The contact in question is that of my school friend who just went to the UK for his masters program, but before I could say Jack, I have been pushed into their vehicle, a danfo bus with the registration number, XU754LND.
Each time I demanded to know what exactly my crime was, the response I got was something like "Keep Quiet! Shut Up! You are a thief! You are a criminal!…..."
My sister was not also spared of the harassment. At that point, I had to raise my voice attracting passerby's who also demanded to know when having a foreign contact has become a crime. Suddenly, their oga instructed them to move.
I don't know how the thoughts came to me but before they moved, I jumped out of the bus through the window. With the heightened tension and the increasing number of people gathering there, they just threw my phone at me and sped off.

The following day, a friend of mine suggested I make a report at a police station. I took the advice and went to Alagbon Police Statio, Ikoyi. Do you know what they told me there? That since they no longer have my phone, I shouldn't worry, that "It's a normal thing". The Nigerian police literally told me that harassment of innocent citizens is a normal thing. Who else do I report to?

My understanding is that there are dozens of similar cases that go unnoticed daily especially in Lagos. As it is, I think the only way police brutality may be put to a near end is by giving such cases as much publicity as possible. May be at some point in the future, someone in a position of authority may be touched to take genuine actions to put an end to it and not just pay lip service.

Omonigeriarere:
Going by your logic, your father and grand father are ANIMALS and you must be an extension of ANIMAL BREED if Nigeria is truly a zoo.

Get it right.

Victorakats:
Next time endeavour to get the code number and if possible the name of the officer in operation so that you can make a detailed report and possibly approach the court if need be.
Just an advise though.

The FG knows all these, they use them too, our corruption is all the way up to them from the Police..... if anyone is serious, let's do it, it's a simple online process, just create a hashtag and everyone retweets till it gathers hundred and maybe thousands of retweets and it begins to trend..
