Gwamnishu’s post read,

‘’Nothing is going to happen….. I will send you to hospital and I will admit you” while bragging, his superiors were watching.

“This is happening at Ekpoma Divisional Police Headquarters, EDO State @EdoPoliceNG. I wish to draw the attention of @Princemoye1 @PoliceNG_CRU @PoliceNG to look into this case and ensure the victim gets justice.”

“When civilians abuse or assault officers, it takes @PoliceNG less than 48hrs to charge suspect to court. On this case, the girl did nothing. There was no reason for her arrest as no petition or statement was taking.”

However, the spokesperson of the Nigeria Police Force, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, reacting to the viral video, asked the Public Relations Officer of the Edo state police command to look into the incident and ensure necessary action is taken. He went on to state that police officers are not trained to slap civilians.

See some reactions from netizens who condemned the officer’s act on Instagram:

uzommi said, “I don’t know about this IGP but if it’s formal IGP in Buharis Government that police man is gone.”

ajeromorgan said, “I think we should all practice how to do secret recording and prepare ahead for days like this. Imagine if this wasn’t captured on camera. Shame.”
