All sides deserve to be punished..I wanted all officer charge to Court..

So sad serving the nation

Sometimes I feel for these officers.. Their crime was to come to work that day because clearly its not bribe they sought.

One kizz Daniel song like that talk say as a human being wey u be..make you No dey do pass urself.

Always think before you talk or act

eee

Great development!


E remain all those SARS officials with korope along pig farm matogun / okearo..

It was a sad sight.
They would have been sacked to serve as a deterrent to others who doesn't know how to handle such situation professionally.

Cool

God please restore sanity to this country.

Great. The right way to go. Every uniformed official oppresses everyone he comes across in Nigeria, except men of the Fire Service

Good one.

Inside life...Niaja nobi a country walai

No wonder police treat blacks like animal. Imagine feeling sorry for them.

Should have charged the officers for assauit

The officers went too far thus became unprofessional in the discharge of their duties.

They wanted a better Nigeria? Well I hope it ends well with both parties.

Did you see the assault? It is wrong for them to have assaulted him. Once some people wear uniform in Nigeria, they feel the are some kind of god.

Makes sense

I do not support the errant driver's action, but those FRSC guys acted very unprofessional.

Kudos to FRSC on this one.

It is well

Ok. It is noted.

Dammmmnnnn Niggarrr Isoright

This na real Madness

Demote?

You should feel for the tricycle man more. What they did was assault and is unwarranted. Most nigerians dont know their rights including this one i just quoted

If these can happen in the NPF I will be very happy

Na dem sabi

Should have been sacked

Good news...
That's the FRSC we left in good faith not knowing these rascals will come and spoil it.
In our times,we were all Gentlemen with the notion of salvaging our roads.
Then criminals looking for job turned that to be like the police force.
