Femi is finally out of the hospital and is telling his own side of the story. See it below...
As I discussed the armed robbery incident with other occupants within our apartment complex, we noticed the gate open slightly followed by the unmistakable sounds of a war grade AK47 rifle."
At the Instant, I docked under a car in the apartment complex and noticed my security guard groaning excruciating a few meters from my location. Why did these robbers come back? Iasked rhetorically and prayed to be spared. Then as I heard the next round of shots, I felt the venom of the automatic rifle spew all over my body. So intense were the sharp burst of pains that I was on the verge of passing out when the words "Police" was heard from the shooter". A surge of deeply felt anger immediately numbed the pains from the fIve gunshot wounds - one in my feet, two in my thigh, one in my bicep and one in my wrist - as I identified myself as a tenant in the apartment complex.
Femi leaving the hospital |
My case is a bizarre one. I had been robbed by a gang of armed bandIts. Dispossessed of my valuables without been harmed only to be shot five times by a polIce officer attached to the
Ajah Police Station in Lagos state Nigeria! My name is Femi Badejo, a professional in one of
Nigeria's leading financial institution and a victim of a retrogressive, ill trained, unprofessional,
poorly clad and irresponsible Nigerian Police Force. However, I am not alone.
Scores of Innocent lives are snuffed out daily by the very institution established to secure their
lives in Nigeria. In November, a policeman shot and killed a bus conductor In the Ketu area of
Lagos State over a bus fare change of 30cents. A human rights group, International Society for
Civil Liberties and Rule of Law estimates that over 54,000 Nigerians were killed illegally from
1999 to 2011 by the Nigerian Police Force. This amounts to an act of genocide against Nigerian
by Nigerians in Nigeria!
Dreams, hopes, aspirations and goals have been brutally pierced by the bullets of a poorly
trained "vigilante" unit legally recognized as Police Officers. To further add "salt to the injuries"
of the victims' loved ones are the incessant cover ups, lies and denials by the public relations
officers in every jurisdiction where these incidents occur. My shooting was downplayed to a
gunshot with a case of mistaken identity attached to it by NgozI BraIde (PRO, NPF Lagos).
While Joshua - the security guard - was said to have been shot by the armed bandits and dead
on arrival by the police officers. Joshua who was presumed dead after he was shot by the
officer is however recuperating from the three gunshot wounds he sustained.
While it is embarrassing that the Nigerian Police Force represents the decaying fabrics of
the larger Nigerian society where politicians will rather loot billions of dollars from the central
purse than secure the lives of its citizenry. It's appalling that an institution established with the
foundatIonal principles of equity, fairness, integrity and justice is known for the opposite of these
enviable attributes with a skillset of killing the citizens they are meant to protect. Even more
appalling is the pervasive non action of the political class - which will prefer to spend billions
on frivolities such as a N2.2 billion banquet hall! - public defenders, human rights activists,
clergymen and other concerned professionals on these immoral policing anomalies! Soon there
will be no citizen to police at this rate! Are we really that helpless?
I am not. My voice will be heard the world over because this culture of impunity must stop! I
type every word on my soft touch phone screen with excruciating pains as I still have a bullet
logged in my wrist and my fingers remain numb with paddings of gauze and plasters all over
my body. I have receIved no apology from the force, I am still Incurring hospital bills running into
thousands of dollars, the Lagos State commissioner of police has refused to accept the letter
served by my lawyers A.O Fayemiwo & Co, the NPF divisions in Ajah and Maroko have also
followed the commissioner's unprofessional conduct just as the police officer who shot me has
not been brought to book.
Once again, my name is Femi Badeo, a Nigerian citizen and I represent countless individuals
that have either lost their lives or survived the brutish policing of the Nigerian Police Force
and we are fighting back! We must ask the right questions, demand the right answers and
collectively find a lasting solution to the endermic problem of brutality by officers of the Nigerian
Police Force.

Sue the living day light out of the NPF, at least with that police officers can know that impunity and incompetence is far from what the NPF should represent
First to comment,sorry

Thank God for u jare
If u av gone tru an ordeal from d men in black. our supposed friend,NPF,u will understand....this might seem childish to some people or unrealistic but the truth is after my experience with them I wish I'm "HULK" and I will destroy all the bad eggs in the police force and our Government and somebody else will do the rest. My prayer is Nemesis will catch up with all the bad police man.
Corruption has totally finished this country!
Please get a good lawyer and sue their assess! Bout time something was done bout the stupidly of Nigerian police. They always arrive late and shoot the victims instead. We need a damn miracle in that country. Nothing seems to be working. Messed up! Nigerians, when will our prayers be answered?! Have we not suffered enough in that god-forsaken country?! Arrghhh!! :(
You have spoken well femi I personal think justices must prevail. I stand up and fight with you
mr femi, dont give up, soon the right people would hear and every criminal involved here would pay dearly
Nigerian police can not change except thorough breskthrough,thank God for ur life oh mr femi
Nigeria is a classic failed state.
So touching and well written, u r lucky to have survived to tell the story. Most people don't and are branded as robbers by the nigerian police force.
May God preserve ur life n make u achieve ur good aims.
Nigerian Police are worst than criminals. I do rather have a criminal visiting me, than a Nigerian Police.
Nigerians are known for recruiting Mad men as police.
I weep for my country.
The Nigerian Police force are bunch of idiots they lay their fustration on innocent citizens when they see armed robbers they'll run away bloody cowards.
With the picture of this guy showing all muscles and big biceps, i would not blame the police for mistakenly shooting him. His presence could have been intimidating to the police on scene. Remember that there was a report of armed robbery in the area and the poorly equipped police responded only to be met by a big muscled fiercely bull-dog looking fellow who was probably scared because he has just been robbed.
What do you expect. Of course the ill trained and poorly equipped police will shoot to at least incapacitate first before asking any questions.I would probably have done the same if i was the poorly trained policeman on the ground that day.[i beg, i no wan die yet]. At least the police responded. We should be happy. The shooting was a mistake that could have been avoided.It was not intentional.
Ure just a punk! Who's competing with u? Ode!
I didn't read all dat lengthy talk, dis guy is cute #POKO
The Nigerian police force def know their asses have been exposed on dis one that's why they refused 2 accept d letter 4rm d lawyers.......typical naija police 4 u.......we must stand up and speak against d dead n decayed Nigerian police force......I support u bro on dis one 100%.......I hate dem police.... like hell........like my nigga Pac says.......fuck da police....!
Its just so unfortunate that incidents like this and even worse happen on daily basis in this country and now it has become a norm. They are never made to face the full wrath of the law.Here is a country where nothing seems to work.
dummy, he's writing internationally not just for Nigeria, 30cents is just like 50naira, people abroad don't know the worth of 50naira but understand 30cents. Think Abeg. Peter
I'm so happy for you Mr Femzy,thank God its not the other way round.I bless God on ur behalf,just give thanks to the one who saved ur lyf.What d devil meant 4evil...God turned it around for ur good.btw..U r cute mehn..#smiles#
this guy should go and sit the fuck down abeg. sue if u want to sue wetin concern us. na us shoot u. Nigeria is bad and we don't need to read ur long essay to know that. seeking cheap attention. at least u didn't die so go to church and do testimony.
Stupidity *
Oyibo!! Nice piece though Mr femi i jst realy hope nd pray dat justice is served..Chica Dim

I thank God for ur life broda. Just sue these fools to court for 'attempting' murder. Shikenah!!!!
Who is d punk,abeg abeg pass d mic
So what stops them from doing the proper thing which is to apologise and pay both his and the security guard's hospital bills? The lies are total unnecessary and unfair and I know that in Jesus' name every murder that Ngozi woman has helped cover up will forver hunt her. She will never find peace until she stops the evil lies.
That stupid PRO Braide lady! One day, they will shoot at your relative. Let me know what your defence will be. Imagine the police arresting me on my street by 8pm, that i was smoking weed. Never even smoked cigarette in my life. It is God that will punish all of you, corrupt fucktards!
I hate the Nigerian police force with everything in me! They kill innocent and brutalise innocent people and turn and lie that they are robbers! Please let's take this to CNN and BBC. The only thing that gets the attention of our useless government is international condemnation.

U r a dumbass idiot......shut up if u dnt av any beta tyn say.sm1 nearly lost his life 2 dos dat r meant 2 b protecting us n u r hear saying rubbish
Anon 8.07pm you are just as dumb as Olu who thinks biceps are enough reason for the police to have shot. I pray you don't experience this or something close maybe then your porous brains would register and appreciate what this guy went tru.
30 cents, is that a Nigerian fare? Who are you writing for, other Nigerians to back you or for the british or American to come and fight for you? Sorry o, maybe you just need to leave the country to where you can use cents. Psheww!
Wooooa same old story ve been hearing since I was a teenager,we gotta be ready to shed blood of this chumps or else we'll forever remain in this wilderness called nigeria! D only language they understand is the gun language,u gotta be stubborn and reactive!!!!! If u dnt wanna be in dis eternal slavery
U r one of d reason nigeria wl not move forward!!pray u don't b in a situation whr u can't defend urself cos oda big guys r der 2 shot u out
The police is your friend. STOP HATING THEM. IF ARMED ROBBERS ATTACK YOU, NO BE THEM UNA GO CALL.
Our leaders cause the whole problems by not providing proper training and logistic. Direct your anger to the appropriate quarter which is ASO ROCK. WHAT YOU ARE PAYING FOR, IS WHAT YOU ARE GETTING. IT IS RUBBISH IN, RUBBISH OUT. DONT BLAME THE PLAYER INSTEAD OF BLAMING THE GAME.WHEN ALL THE MONEY BEING ALLOCATED TO THE POLICE FORCE ARE BEING LOOTED ALL THE TIME, HOW DO YOU EXPECT THEM TO PERFORM WELL. NO TRAINING, NO VEHICLES FOR THE POLICE. YOU SHOULD ALL MARCH ON ASO ROCK IF YOU WANT PERFORMANCE. CANT YOU ALL WITNESS WHAT IS GOING ON IN EGYPT? BY SITTING IN FRONT OF COMPUTERS AND HATING ON A POORLY PAID AND TRAINED POLICE WILL NEVER IMPROVE THE POLICE. YOUR FUTURE IS IN YOUR HANDS MY FELLOW NIGERIANS. JUST ONE MONTH ON MARCHING ON ASO ROCK/NATIONAL ASSEMBLY/SENATE WILL STOP ALL THE LOOTING, THE ROOT CAUSE OF ALL THE PROBLEM.
for Mike -December 9, 2012 10:05 PM
You probably looked suspicious to the police that stopped u on your street. This is a normal procedure in policing. Even in USA, if u looked or drive suspiciously to the the police, the police will stop you and ask you questions. If you are caught with weeds, you will be going nowhere but jail. Dont blame the police for doing their job.
The Nigerian Police is the only Natural Disaster we have in Nigeria.
OMG! It's pple like u dt has made dis country dis bad. Thnk God we hav brave pple who r willing 2 fight d decay. May God hav mercy on ur spineless, decayed, rotten soul. Pray very hard that nothing like dis happens 2 u, den u wil b forced 2 eat ur words like d dog u r.

My brother thank God 4 ur life.Anytin u want 2 do,do it well so dat it will nt affect u.
For olu and the anon 8.07pm that typed rubbish, I see your comments as the height of myopism, we are talking about decadence in the NPF, lives lost due to carelessness and incompetence and you dare use your stupid fingers to type these Hogwash,Femi we are with you on this one and Justice must be served, how will it be if Ngozi braide was mistakenly shot 5 times and all you get is sorry it was a mistake...Haba let's be our brothers keeper, if you think he's doing this to organize a pity party, then wait until you are shot to know how it feels...Justice is all we seek and we will get it.
This nation or community named Nigeria is a Disgrace. the NPF is the most useless govt outfit in d world, i wld prefer OPC to 4kdup unit. *mtcheww*
I think the only thing our NPF know how to do like a professional is the collection of their bribe(egunje). They displays more of their expertees at collecting bribe than doing the main work they are employed to do.
Oh will you shutup, pathetic goat!
You are part of the reason why Nigeria isn't moving forward.
how i wish dr is a force caled anti police squad, i wil lyk 2 join dt one so i could help and fight dis nonsensetical pple...mtchewww. I thank God u survived femi, GOD WIL HEAL u completely.
This Ngozi woman should be sacked immediately,she doesnt know her job and what to say,Mbah was far beta.
Meanwhile i pray that God will guide you and justice will be done
Make Seun catch you eh
Thank God For ur life Femi
@ mike lollll, bt people to be serious dis country is in trouble o. We need to stand firmly behind ppl like dis and seek justice. My friend was once arrested for running away from his car durinng a robbery and when he came back for it, he and his friends were caught and called thieves, thank God for a man that told them d truth dt dey were innocents bt dis did nt stop them from taking them Sabo Police station. Each family were asked to pay 200k or dey will be charged to court for robbery o bt after d payments dey were released. God will help dis nation
Just had to comment - Mr Olu, r u serious!!!!! So if a "bulldog" is hiding, unarmed, underneath a car, he is still menacing to the officers abi! What a very stupid justification from you! I pray a Nigerian police will mistake you for an armed robber and shoot you one day, maybe you will forgive them instantly, as you would have made the same mistake!!! Kai I think its people like you that are crowding the NPF!!! #SMHatsomestupidremarks!!!
Abeg NPF, where una dey? Come shoot this ode make we see whether he too will talk or not! FOOL!!!!!!
I'm just glad you survived this...
something has to be done about this, there should be some kind of law and they should be made to face the consequences of their actions cos i've never heard about anything that the police has done any1 of their colleagues that offended
i swear,we blame the government everyday.we are the problems of dis country ourselves.the police should be sued.#TeamFemiBadejomustgetjustice
Some people have a kind heart, some have a whicked heart some are inbetween. But our policemen? They dont have a heart!
OLU!!!!!!!!! Ara e lo doju ti! Did u not read the part where he said he was on d floor with his hands over his head. Is that how armed robbers attack police in ur village???? I find ur post really offensive, so please do urself a big favour by reading Mr Badejo's story again
femi dear,take heart. atlist e thank God ur alive,i support u with everythn i hav to fight back,use whatever connection u have coz my dear,dis country no b am o.we dont protect our own,our leaders are wicked to us and dont care if lives are taken by does rotten cockroaches called police.my friend was murdered by the police almost 10yrs ago and dey planted a gun on him and claimed he was a cultist,his father knew dey were all liars from the pit of hell and took law into his hands and as an ex soldier,he killed every descendant of the police men who were present during his sons murder and even the ones who participated.he was bitter bcoz he knew the son he bore and felt robbed that they cut his life so short. well make i no over yarn.btw..... ur a hot guy heheheehe
Then he should have written fifty naira with the dollar equivalent in bracket
This olu na constable o o o . Foolish polisi man
Then he should have written fifty naira with the dollar equivalent in bracket
Go man, good move.
@ Olu, you are obviously an imbecile. Omo ale jatijati. Let's all learn to speak up. However, from what I read in the papers lately, the commissioner of police is arrogant, rude, non challant, violent etc. He recently chased out a Punch newspaper journalist for trying to confirm a story. Nigerians must speak up. Enough of these cover ups. Femi, please don't give up. The court is the answer. Grant more interviews. Copy the IG. He is a no nonsense man. Get well soon bro.
cant wait 4 the day i will hold power in nigeria, all police men, ex and serving are all going down. i hate them like hell
Olu, u r craving attention so let me give you, Shut up you dumb f&@k. we know u r part of the mediocre products that we have rued since 1960 but must u open that ur foul mouth and repeatedly air ur stupidity. SHUT THE F*&K UP YOU DEMENTED NON-ENTITY
PLEASE, LET US ALL SIT BACK, TAKE A BREATH FOR A SECOND AND THINK INSTEAD OF JUST SITTING IN FRONT OF COMPUTERS AND SPEWING NONSENSE ABOUT OUR MEN WHO ARE RISKING THEIR LIFE AS POLICE OFFICERS..
THE GOOD AND HARD WORKING MEN IN OUR POLICE FORCE ARE NOT THE PROBLEM. THE SYSTEM THEY ARE OPERATING IS THE PROBLEM. IF WE CARRY THE SYSTEM OUR POLICE ARE OPERATING TO AMERICA OR UK, THE POLICEMEN OVER THERE WILL PERFORM WORSE THAN OUR POLICEMEN EVER HERE.
WE MUST ALL FIGHT TO CHANGE THE SYSTEM. IF ALL THE PEOPLE SPEWING RUBBISH HERE ARE EMPLOYED AS OUR POLICE OFFICERS, THEY WILL PERFORM WORSE THAN OUR PRESENT POLICE OFFICERS.[OUR ONCE-SHOELESS PRESIDENT IS AN EXAMPLE].
99.9% OF US ARE MORBIDLY CORRUPT. CORRUPTION RUNS DEEP IN OUR GENES. THERE IS NO NIGERIAN LEADER OR RULER WHO HAS NEVER EMBEZZLED. THEY ARE THE SAME.THEY ARE ALL ROGUES. THEY ALL PART OF OUR ECO-SYSTEM. CORRUPTION IS PART AND PARCEL OF OUR ECOSYSTEM.
THE ONLY WAY TO CHANGE THINGS IN NIGERIA IS TO START FROM BOTTOM AND GO UP FIGHTING.IT IS A FACT THAT WE ARE ALL CORRUPT.
Ngozi braide IS NOT THE PROBLEM. THE SYSTEM SHE IS OPERATING IS THE PROBLEM. PLEASE GIVE RESPECT AND HONOUR TO HER AND OTHER MEMBERS OF OUR POLICE FORCE. DONT GET ME WRONG, I AM NOT SAYING THAT THAT OUR POLICE FORCE IS A PERFECT FORCE. THERE IS CORRUPTION EVERY WHERE, EVEN IN USA. IN USA, THEY RIGGED ELECTIONS TOO. THEY USED A SYSTEM CALLED VOTERS SUPPRESSION. VOTERS SUPPRESSION IS ONE FORM OF RIGGING ELECTIONS. IN FACT, IT IS THE WORSE FORM. THAT IS THE ONLY WAY RNC WINS ELECTION IN USA. IF YOU DONT BELIEVE ME, DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH INSTEAD OF SITTING IN FRONT OF MACS AND SPEWING GARBAGE.
PLEASE RESPECT OUR POLICE MEN AND WOMEN. THE GAME IS FAULTY NOT THE PLAYERS. IT IS ONLY MARCHING ON ASO ROCK/SENATE/NATIONAL ASSEMBLY THAT CAN SOLVE ALL THESE PROBLEMS. WE ALL NEED TO COME TOGETHER IN RESPECTIVE OF ETHNICITY TO FIGHT FOR OURSELVES AND OUR LOVED ONES.
WE HAVE BEEN CARRYING 'SHIT' FOR OUR NON-ELECTED[COUP PLOTTERS] AND ELECTED LEADERS FOR A LONG TIME AND ME, I AM TIRED OF CARRYING 'SHIT' FOR THEM. ALL OF THEM ARE FLYING AROUND IN PERSONAL JETS AFTER LIQUIDATING OUR NIGERIA AIRWAYS WHICH IS MEANT FOR THE COMMON NIGERIANS WHO CANT AFFORD THE COST OF FOREIGN AIRLINES.I AM READY FOR THE FIGHT. WE CANT ALL BE LIVING LIKE THIS.

Please next time you or anyone you know are arrested with or without any justification. Dont pay our policemen any bribe. Get a lawyer. If you dont have money for one, ask for a public defender. If you live in Lagos, we have public defenders in Lagos state; that i know.Every establishment have crooks. Please dont blame the whole Nigerian police force if you are maltreated by one Nigerian police officer.
To miss Justice -December 10, 2012 1:20 PM
The mere fact that someone is on the floor with his one hand on his head does not mean he does not posed as a threat. Do you know what the other hand is holding. You were not on scene with your life at risk so you cannot be speaking on what those police men should have done or should not have done.
You should remember there was a report that armed robbers were operating there. That was why the police showed up. At least be happy that they showed up. The shooting of an innocent man was a pure unintended accident. If there was a video of what happened , then one will be in a better position to judge. Please be careful when judging others. Our policemen are working days and nights with barely nothing to confront fellow Nigerians like you who decided that crime pays. At least show some respect to these police officers. If you are not happy with what they are doing, you are welcome to join as long as you are fit enough and ready to live with the peanuts as salary.

To Araparegungun -December 10, 2012 9:28 AM
Sorry to hear about your friends that were 'mistakenly' arrested and asked to pay bribe before they could be released.
Even in USA and UK, innocent people do get arrested mistakenly and charged to court for offenses that they do not commit. In fact they are cases of people doing jail time in USA and later on to be exonerated by DNA tests. Please dont blame the Nigeria police for this because they dont know that your friends were innocent. The police did the right thing by arresting your friends who looked suspicious and could be carrying weapons like knives on them as we dont even know the full story.Your friends should have asked for a lawyer if they surely know that they are not armed robbers. I am sure they will get a lawyer for less than what they paid as bribe. And if they didn't have money, they should have asked for a public defender. By paying bribes to get released, they just committed another crime. Please stop attacking our policemen like this. The policemen are doing their jobs. Who needs suspicious people walking the streets aimlessly at night carrying God-knows and here you are sitting in front of your mac/computer and you expect the policemen not to act? Please i beg talk something else.
To Clarividente
I am not craving for attention. I dont need it. What i dont like is ungrateful Nigerians like you blaming our policemen and women all the time when Nigerians like you are the one committing the crime and enticing these policemen with bribes. Aliens are not the one committing the crime or are they?
The policemen are not putting gun to your head asking for bribes. That will be considered armed robbery. It is Nigerians like you who will go and commit crime and start enticing a lowly and poorly paid policeman with bribe and now turn around to be complaining. The policemen are not bribing themselves or are they?
STOP OFFERING BRIBE TO THE POLICE.If you do, you are liable. Period.
Will you shut your dirty mouth! Listen to the rubbish you are saying, we should be thankful they showed up! Isn't that their job and what is the essence of them showing up, even the robbers didn't shoot the man and he and his security man were better off till the bastard policemen came. As for the Ngozi woman, what is there to respect about a liar and a witch. Even if it was a mistake why not apologise and pay his hospital bills like decent people. Instead the stupid woman is ignoring the issue and lying and they even had the guts to refuse the letters they were served! The police force is full of bastards and each of them that has even threatened and assulted an innocent citizen will suffer for their sins. Their ends will be terrible, so if you or your family member belongs to that evil force you better know that the blood of innocent people will keep crying against you. Nigerian policemen are worse than animals!
You're a big fool! They are doing their jobs by asking for bribes right? It seems collecting bribes is officially part of their duty. By the way in the USA or UK, the right thing would have been for the police officer to talk to him and upon discovering that he had no weapons on him, they would have had to let him go. Its against a person's human rights to be arrested just because someone thinks they look suspicious. There is a thing called freedom of movement which the stupid police officers we have in this country do not realise. You can't just drive around arresting people for looking suspicious!
We should respect that stupid Ngozi woman who is a common liar! She is a mannerless idiot who dosen't realise that she's there to serve the citizens and is answerable to us! She will surely suffer all these things she keeps covering up. If she wants respect she should do the honourable thing by exposing the guilty officers and letting us know that they will be charged. Instead that stupid woman keeps telling 1 lie after the other. God will surely punish her!
This man write so well. Despite the pains. Femi its a sad one and I pray for your quick recovery. However we hope our law enforcement will sit upright and with people like you, the anomaly would be corrected.
I am sure "Olu" is a policeman. Because I can't understand why he is defending our corrupt and totally inefficient Nigerian police force. Its better to have an encounter with a criminal than a policeman in Nigeria. They are evil personified!!
@Olu, from all you've written I believe you have something(s) against Femi and this's not the platform to express your differences. What you've written is not only offensive but stupid and lacks reasoning, no right thinking person will in ANY WAY justify what the men of the NPF did in this case, NONE whosoever! I do sincerely hope it happens to you because YOU will also look like a suspect to the NPF, (since you have the nerve to tell someone he looked like a suspect without even knowing what he looks like!) I hope they do the same thing to you, gosh! (some people, irritating nonsense). Mr Femi, i'm with you all the way on this one.Ignore the ignorant stupid posts please.
@mr olu or wateva disgusting name u bear.... u are just demented!!! you are justifying the act of the police dat day becos the victim looks built, and u forgot to mention the fact that he was shot five times! what if he didnt survive? so a hero's medal should b given to that sick fuck of a police officer. imagine, u are even saying we should b happy they responded?of what good is their response if not by Gods mercies they would have left two pple dead. u just sick!
Na so ur prayer plenty bcos u wan scope d guy,ashewo 30cent.
Our police force need overhaul. Psycho testing unschedule. This is a challenge to the IG. Actions speak better than voice. On earlier appointment, he was displaying his whims as if he is one.

If somebody is kidnapped in Nigeria today, is it not our police officers that will be risking their lives looking for the person? If armed robbers attacked una, no be our brothers in the police you na go call? So why all these hatred towards all our men in uniform just because of a few bad police officers? The policemen were not on scene that day to shoot any innocent person. What happened was a mistake. Can't you people get that. If you have been poorly treated by a doctor, does that mean all doctors are now guilty? Why hate all policemen just because you have been wrongly treated by a few policemen. You all need to change your attitude towards our police officers. Do you people know how many police officers that have met their untimely death just because they were trying to protect us from our fellow Nigerians who are armed robbers? We all need to sit down in a corner and think about all these instead of hating on these policemen. We should direct our angers towards the right place which is Aso rock instead of sitting in front of our computers and hating on policemen. Our problems are our leaders. We need to direct our annoyance towards them. If you all want to continue hating and disrespecting our men in uniform, 'goodluck' to una. Maybe una belong to people that grew up without shoes and now that una have shoes Boku, una no fit think properly again. I REST MY CASE HERE. I am tired trying to convince una to give our policemen the respect they deserve.

Olu did you just write "stop giving bribe to the police?" How many bus conductors and okada riders have been killed because of refusing to give your fellow men N20? I'm sure you work with the NPF that's why you are here defending their mediocrity and total failure.. What if Femi had died? Would they have said they thought he was a robber? its just so sad what the NPF has become, such much decay in the system, half baked drunk men wielding guns on the streets and shooting harmless citizens for pleasure. Most of them reek of alcohol even very early in the morning, its a sorry state.
Mr. Olu watch what you say, it could have been you, your brother, father, sister or anyone close to you...
I hate the NPF and everything they stand for especially their horrible black uniforms.
U r a BIG FOOL..kip ur mouth shut if nuffin meaningful will come out of it,Arrant nonsense.

We shld just clean d system by recuriting new set of police men take dem to isreal train dem bring dem back and d few gud remaining police can wrk in do office while d newly trained do the 911 cal b4 dis nigerian police wipe us all out. Its funny hw d police wch is mearnt to mak u feel safe fill ur heart wif so much fear and Trembling I hate police and I dnt hide it period they shld be called uniform thiefs nt police
