Viral Video: Police Officer Flogging Man In Rivers Arrested, To Be Flown To Force Headquarters
“…I wonder how a man, a reasonable man, would be flogging or slapping a grown-up man in that manner. So barbaric and unpolice.”
The Nigerian Police Force has detained the police officer and two of his colleagues who were shown in a viral video attacking an unidentified man in Port Harcourt, Rivers state.
The footage of one of the police officers beating the man at Emouha Junction on the Port Harcourt East-West Road went viral over the weekend. In response to the viral video, Muyiwa Adejobi, the Police Public Relations Officer, criticized the officer’s behavior.
On Monday, April 10, Adejobi posted a status update on his account stating that the policemen responsible for the conduct had been detained and will be taken to the Force Headquarters.
“These men have been arrested, and their commander will personally bring to the Force Headquarters tomorrow Tuesday(today) for further actions. They are 3 in number, attached to RRS, Rivers State. Their action does not portray the police in a good light at all. It is still to buttress my point that whatever a policeman does is personal, not systemic. I wonder how a man, a reasonable man, would be flogging or slapping a grown-up man in that manner. So barbaric and unpolice.”
