so happy that this is not a failed project.... Thank God! ...but even if U feel u're getting strong, U still have to finish the treatment please...get to the root cause and take corrective measures to ur style of living @djdola..so as to avoid a relapse or reoccurrence.

LogicPower:
Yes, the Nigerian police give Nigerians many reasons to hate them, which is very unfortunate.

Please as Nigerians, we owe these innocent victims of police brutality a moral duty to assist them within our limited powers, e.g. by keeping their tragic story very much alive in all the online discussion forums we visit, until it gets enough attention of the authorities and the wicked police culprits are punished accordingly.

The Punch is doing an excellent job by giving this story maximum publicity, where so far hundreds of posters have voiced their outrage. The momentum needs to be maintained. Today it is this innocent couple that suffered such brutality in the hands of the some savages in the Nigerian police uniform, tomorrow it could be you or me, or someone dear to us.

I totally agree with U...their voices must be heard...like someone said, they were even lucky they were not shot and displayed as armed robbers.... impunity is another name for our men in black

A lot of questions kept crossing my mind....
What were the other police guys doing when the guy was battering the Ejeh guy?
What if the riffle was shot accidentally?
Why did the DPO order the deletion of the evidence?


....I do not think we have a future in this so called Nigerian Police

Police brutality everywhere...Thank God Police did not kill them

A 29-year-old photographer, Ejeh Smith, and his wife, Grace, 26, are in pains and receiving treatment at a Lagos hospital after a police officer, identified as Dada Ogunsanya, allegedly tortured them with his rifle.

Ogunsanya is attached to the Ikoyi Police Division.

The incident happened at the Lekki Roundabout on Wednesday, last week, while the couple was in a taxi en route to their home at Parkview Estate.

PUNCH Metro learnt that the police officer was among a seven-man team, patrolling the area around 10pm.

The police team was said to have stopped the taxi driver and demanded that he opened his boot for a routine check.

The taxi driver, Ndubuisi Iheaka, told our correspondent that after he opened his boot which contained scaffolding belts, the policeman demanded to see his driving licence.

“I was about getting the driving licence when he started flashing his torchlight on my passengers who were sitting at the back.

“The wife told the officer not to flash the torch on them since the inner light of the vehicle was on.

“Because of what she said, the policeman asked them to come down from the cab. This started an argument. The next thing I saw was that the policeman pulled my passenger (Ejeh) by his trousers, and his wife went to plead with him to stop.

“But instead, he slapped her and punched her husband. He was wearing a ring, which inflicted a deep cut on Ejeh’s face. After that, he used the butt of his gun to hit him in his eye and face. He also dragged his wife on the road.”

Grace said the policeman, apart from slapping her, stepped on her tummy.

“If I was pregnant that night, I would have lost my pregnancy. I was only trying to pet him to leave my husband since he did not have business with us. I told him to face the cab driver and leave us alone. “The other policemen were just looking at him while he dragged me on the ground. A man riding a tricycle at the time was the one who rescued me. He said the policemen must call their Divisional Police Officer or else he would not leave the scene,” she said.

The Ikoyi DPO, Mrs. Aisha Haruna, was said to have arrived at the scene.

Ejeh claimed he could barely see because blood was dripping from his eyes, while his wife was vomiting blood. He added that the DPO ordered that they be taken to the station to make statements.

He said, “But we told her that we needed to first treat ourselves before we could make statements. That was when we were given forms and referred to the Falomo Police Hospital. We paid for the treatment and we also went to the eye clinic for treatment.”

His wife claimed that the DPO seized her phone and asked an inspector at the station to delete all the pictures and video recording she did of the incident.

“Even my personal data were deleted. And when I asked the DPO why she did that, she said we deserved the treatment we got. She said she would have locked us up in the cell if not for our injuries. She said we did not know how to talk,” she added.

The family lawyer of the victims, Mr. Sunday Agbinya, said his office would write a petition to the Inspector General of Police to redress the wrong done to his clients.

“This is a case of assault occasioning harm and we intend to challenge it. We will send a petition to the IG. We want the police to conduct a full investigation into this,” he said.

The legal officer of a non-governmental organisation, Project Alert on Violence Against Women, Mr. Ben Odeh, said the police officer responsible for the act should be disciplined for torturing the couple.

He said, “It is a breach of their constitutional rights. The policeman went too far.”

The Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, confirmed the incident.

He said, “Yes, the incident happened in the Ikoyi division.Inquiries are on as well as disciplinary procedures.”

Thanks bro

CHESSBOARD: Brother no count reach 20 yrs.... borrow money and tie that knob

I would count 20 but in marriage...

JayKayMaybachz: Una 2 gel... Wife am

Thanks bro....Looking seriously into it.....just wanna make more money before taking any step joor

2years and still counting

Brainrex: SOLD

at least u've sold d phone nw....can u tell us why u sold it within a short time of buying......so that intending buyers wont find themselves in ur shoes

2004-Trium...that phone with funny antenna....really loved the phone with the funny tone

kwangi: Bro, just tell your friend your thoughts, with finality o!
The Gf and the colleague have been on that shoit for some time now.
She just happened to find out that the dude was just using her to cure konji,but alas it was too late because the guy done did it already.
They should give themselves some space, a long one o!

Thanks bro....exactly my thoughts ooo....but I just dont want to look like someone that ruined the relationship my guy has built for 2 years...the funny thing here is that the only set of people on NL that supported the gf and want them together again here are ladies only....so, i sense prejudice/"partisan judgement"...in addition, they just tell me not to ruin their relationship without them backing it up with cogent reasons from the available information....

fruityjojo: Wat is ur own insyd! U just want dat poor boy 2 miss his Wife! Do u knw how many time ur gf has cheated on u or with how many boys ehn? pls leave dis peeps 2 start afresh dnt kill their love with all ur Assumptions nd Lies!

hmmmm...wise words....u confirmed something-ALL LADIES CHEAT! So if this is given, why should the guy treat a lady that cheats with so much respect? and why should he risk his career for such a lady the point here is that he should concentrate on his career and reduce the level of conmmitment in this relationship and put it at the back of his mind (like myself) that the lady can leave him anytime.
Regarding my gf cheating....a point of correction....GFs....with no future plan for any....any lady that thinks she's found true love in me in on such a looooooooong thing....
...regarding starting afresh,u just made the point for me.....my suggestions are the start afresh principle.....
...and for your last point, I still find it hard to see the assumptions and lies here....coz all my cocnclusions are based on the facts available....How do u describe someone u called and told you she's going to the poll alone....but went with a toaster u've warned her several times to be careful about?

yiboboy: You're a tool! If u've made up ur mind on the issue why bring it to the WWW? Nor be u ask 4 advice? So good things don't come cheap. . . how expensive are these so-called good things? More aptly how much sacrifice does the guy need to make? Let him wait till she bleeps his best friend!

Hey bro...wasnt refering to your advice on the topic...was refering to ur conclusion that Monicasque would get her heart broken....

yiboboy: @ topic: The girl is not to be trusted, let her be!

@ Monisque: yes ma! Just don't come back hia and tell us how wale crushed ur heart!

Thanks for your response....but on u rushing into conclusion with the little details u have is just out of this world...with all respects, guys like u fall victim of cheap seduction and get manipulated easily....good things often do not come cheap....
@monisque...replied ur mail...chk ur inbox

yiboboy: Na ur wale I see wey dey slack oooh! Babe's got the hots for you, abi u dey overly selective ni? Abeg communicate with her oooh!

I still repeat. I know you very well wale and if you were to search deep down your mind, you will know me too

Monicasque: Johannesburg

Sowie...wrong Wale...

fredopayee: Are we not talking about the same guy here? Check my last post. Advice seriusly needed.

Not at all...My guy has been dating this girl for close to 2 years...but a stunning similarity is that my guy disflowered this his gf as well......seems like ladies of these days cant be trusted again...that's why I dont think abt any lady at all ooo...though one lady think she has a steady relationship...in my mind...poooo....my life and career...with my past experience...TRUST is the last thing to expect from our ladies these days....Young men like us should focus more on developing our career to the fullest and making serious money before we think about any lady joor

Monicasque: I think i know you. Where do you stay?

Lagos here.... where do u think u know me from?
