The police officers were said to have harassed and arrested people at will in the midnight raid which saw them roving all around the clubs and lounges in three Black-Maria and two Hilux vehicles.
However, one club (Road Runners) which was relaunching that same night was not raided like the others in the neighbourhood, prompting other patrons to ask questions. Please continue...
People are alleging that the owners of Road Runners (Diran and Sobowale)
may have deliberately used the police to frustrate EmBARssy Lounge, which
has since become the most patronized fun spot in in the area.
Basketmouth and owners of the other fun spots affected by the raid are planning to petition the Lagos State Commissioner of Police
against the action of the Sabo-Yaba police station officers, as the raid reportedly scared away many patrons which has led to loss of millions of naira in revenue.
Meanwhile,
the Lagos State Police Command has described the allegation of being
biased as unfounded and an act of wickedness. Reacting on the police raid, the PPRO, Ngozi Braide told reporters
that the affected club owners were only being sentimental.
"It
is not possible for any club or lounge to control the Lagos State
Police Command and the commissioner of Lagos. That is wickedness on the
part of anybody insinuating this. It was a joint operation by Rapid
Response Squad (RRS) and Area C. It happened in the early hours of
saturday. They targeted black spots" Braide explained.
Yes Road Runners was left out. they were launching PUSSY Energy Drink. I guess they must have bribed the police so that people will feel safe clubbing there than any other.

My question is, why should they arrest innocent citizens that are having their fun? Its true that a lot of stuffs go down in clubs but its not professional or nice when u arrest without proof or evidence.

Must we all assume that police gets bribed for every action taken...most if not all of you here including Linda gives bribe. let those who never gave bribes being a Nigerian or living in Nigeria please reply. You all are just as quilty as you speak
ReplyDeleteListen...always remember before you criticize these lovely and underpaid and under paid security officers. Common sense tells you that if you not trained for a job you cant function as expected. Besides, most of you low lives have to realize it takes two to tangle. You must give before it can be accepted.
ReplyDeleteSo let you who is not corrupt or has never bribed an officer before cast the first insult on a set of people whose image has been battered as a result of unlawful citizen like you all.

DeleteJohn.. Cool down! Have you heard of forced-bribe? You are pulled over all your papers are complete. Then you are asked to recite your plate number ..since you don't know it, you just committed an offence. They board your vehicle and off to the station.. On arriving you are told to settle them if not, you will be arrested for theft.. So get off your godly bullshit.. And FUCK NPF!!! Being under paid does not give any asshole the right to abuse the privilege of thier job..

ReplyDeleteRoadrunners Niran & Shobo would not hav done that, I'm too sure, coz embarssy & dejavu r dead zones nah, they cnt even compare to RR, even if drinks wher free @ dis oda so called 'clubs' RR would stil b full to capacity, coz their crowd is loyal & d place is awesome. N d owners knw that, so make people go rest jare. 9ja popo is just being the way they always r, incompitent n useless! Dey wher prob just bored! N cldnt raid RR coz dey have their own mobile police security
ReplyDeletejohn imade is definately a police man...tnk God i wasnt in embarsy dat day o ...wetin i for tell my papa ....
ReplyDeleteIt's simple......basically for business reasons. Shady business strategy. hmmm.......
ReplyDeleteDejavu is rily a dark spot and embassy lounge has been robbed b4. So the shd up their security and stop pointing fingers at those who have security. Nuff said.
ReplyDeleteClubs in this yaba area has become a big haven for criminals, most especially the 1 in Unilag-Abule oja (DEJAVU). They rob daily. Nigerian Police, sabo should please beam their search light on this area very well. I have been robbed in this particular point 1 day coming from night vigil by these small boys with local pistols. They trail me to UNILAG gate. It was a sad experience.
ReplyDeleteIn defense of RR I ve to say dis, embarssy n dejavu r rily low lifes clubs, road runnaz is a very classy club, best on d mainland, d distance in deir rep is so far off each other, dey r too low for RR to compete wit, so dey can as well get deir act ryt n stop blaming ppl for deir predicament, in btw, RR has mobile police men who r permanently stationed, just asking ve u met d road runnaz PRO, she's rily hawt, good face for d club
ReplyDeleteReally, RR is on ibikunle street to point that out.Really,sobo or niran do not hv time for things lyk d@. They can't do such.. Basket pele sa...
