Photos: Rapper 2shotz settles with Police after unlawful detention
Rapper 2shotz this morning settled with the police at Lamgbasa Police station, four days after calling them out on instagram for unlawfully detaining him overnight in a police cell over traffic violation His initial story which he shared on instagram here caught the attention of the Lagos Police Command who called him over to their office for redress. Below is what 2shotz wrote:
After the incident at lamgbasa police division Ajah, I was invited by police officer @aleeygiwato
the lagos state PRO of the Nigerian police command
at Oduduwa Street, off Oduduwa crescent ikeja GRA yesterday...... I met
with the most sane, well spoken, and understanding policemen and
women... I was so shocked at how neat and organised a Nigerian police
office could be...
There i met the 1st in command KEN OKORO, the 2 IC
ALIU GIWA, ASP matilda, and BALOGUN.. the former ADC to d police
commissioner... These police officers were furious about the NEGATIVE
images thier fellow policemen are painting to the police... And i was
clearly shown (with all honesty) ALL and HOW theyve been trying and
working to clean this image... NOW it is CLEAR that there are bad eggs
amongst them... And the DPO of LAMGBASA police division Ajah was
summoned and unfortunately he wasnt even aware of the incident on Saturday...
And the policemen who caused all this have been summoned for
identification and are going to face whatever punishment comes to them
(ehich cannot be disclosed here)...... I'm happy at how i was treated at
ikeja PRO division. And let me use this medium to pass their message to
nigerians.... KNOW YOUR RIGHT. Both HUMAN and TRAFFIC laws.... DO NOT
let an unlawful policeman ride you... And avoid breaking the law too....
IF any Nigerian should be or is harassed... Kindly take the complaints
to THE OFFICE OF THE NIGERIAN POLICE COMMMAND.... PUBLIC RELATIONS
DIVISION at ODUDUWA Street in ikeja GRA....... They are SANE and well
organised and are ready to do whatever it takes to clear the image of
the Nigerian police...... BLESSINGS TO US ALL..THANX
Go and sin no more sire.. thou you said the police was guilty and your candid advice was well received but still go and right your wrongs too. James 4:17. @Bishop_Dammy
This is just the same as advertising your product, brand or publicity stunt without spending money but spending all the drama. 2shotz, you need to do the publicity the right way, Nigerians are not fools.
If you are part of the NPF, honestly you are useful in this contemporary society. I hate the NPF with all I have. When am super made, ama deal with them I swear. Engr Emy
Who is dis dude plz. Mr David u re one those pipo who credits LASG to the good of the police force and then lambast FG for the bad...be consistent in 2015
WELL, I HAD SIMILAR CASE TOO...BUT ITS SO UNFORTUNATE THAT I DID NOT REPORT THE CASE OR TAKE IT UP THIS WAY... I FOR WIN WELL WELL.... THE POLICEMAN ASKED FOR 50K.... AND AS I NO GET, I WAS LOCKED UP IN CELL LIKE PLAY LIKE PLAY OVERNIGHT...TILL THE NEXT NIGHT.... AND RELEASED AFTER PARTING AWAY WITH 10K... THE D.P.O WAS INVOLVED THOUGH..
Thank Goodness there is at least a measure of sanity in the police force. Y'all must be owing a 'trillion' Nigerians apologies - yes, the ones that are not on social media but also had their rights infringed upon! Pls visit my blog...
Many thanks to you 2shotz. I was arrested and detained in the same police station on 31st December, 2013 after being involved in an accident. 2 vehicles on the other side of the lane on Ajah-Badore road, collided into each other and came to where i stopped waiting for them to move on so I could turn into the road (it's a U turn spot). Unfortunately for the okada man in front of me, he was crushed to death while i smashed my head against my windshield. LAMGBASA police officers came and packed everybody to their station, I was left at the scene. Of course, I thought of it wise to go to the station to state my own account of the ordeal and go get medical attention while i arrange for towing of my vehicle. To my surprise, the so called DPO asked the officers to lock me and other drivers in the cell. I explained to him that i came to the station myself and would like to go get medical attention coz i was already bleeding at that point, all i said fell to deaf hear. I'll really be happy if the entire officers at that station are changed or relieved of their duty. They treated all those that slept in that cell with utmost disrespect and no regards for life. I'm lucky today i'm writing this. LAMGBASA police station should be OVERHAULED!!!! sorry it's this lenghty
oga o! u were too slow to act. 2013 lohun lohun. pls let us av a positive attitude to be proactive at all times. ur attitude cld av bring abt change n prevent 2014 occurence.
Permit me to say this, you were able to get redress coz u are a celebrity. until a nobody gets redress like the one you got, then i will know they have really changed. I rest my case.
I hope this isn't because you are able public figure? Nonetheless, it seems social media us going some justice. It's to publicize any wrong doing by public officers that seems to encourage proper re dressing. E go better
As an ardent fan of LIB,its funny to say that this is my first comment ever since I have been following this blog for years. 2shotz have really done justice to all the misconceptions most Nigerians and non-Nigerians have about the NPF. It is important that we know our rights and also avoid breaking the law,because with these moral acts,the bad eggs in the NPF would gradually be flushed out. Thanks to 2Shotz for sharing this informative experience.
seeing this guys just make me wanna join the nigeria police,so neat ,young and this is the type of police i want for my belove country nigeria..i wanna join also richlyblessed007@gmail.com
Amen.......... U wia heard cos u are a celebrity and could go to media to vent. let it be a common Nigeria and u would see that Mr. Raw sayings are correct... bro "ur right no dey for constitution "
a.k.a EDWIN CHINEDU AZUBUKO said... . Na only God knw hw much them pay 2shot to write wetin him just write shah.. But is gud to knw his complains was acted upon, what a gud feeling no doubt..... *GLO BRING 3G TO KONTAGORA* . . ***CURRENTLY IN JUPITER***
Please why does some post come out grey. Is it for to read or not. I noticed sometimes some article grey out like this one. Or is it my phone. Samsung note it is
Linda, my take on this story is this: why didn't the Police post their best 'hands' out there. I can bet you 2shotz was given this audience because he is a celebrity. Peace I'm out.
Can we nigerians atleast for once acknowledge the fact that the situation was handled professionally by these gentlemen of the police force. Either 2 shotz is a clecbrity or not, they called him in and apologised and used him as a medium to spread the message to nigerians about what they doing. Nigerians stay positive.
Puhlease! Only because you are a "somebody" and you put them on blast! The "average" citizen doesn't experience this same courtesy. I had this fool almost cause an accident by obstructing my quick chance to make a U-turn before oncoming traffic came. The idiot stood in front of my car. I was thinking something was wrong and this cow was like "Aunty no vex, we dey here". I was so pissed! I just hissed, wound up and drove off. I have stories for days. Almost got robbed on falomo bridge 10 feet away from policemen who were causing traffic with their check point (which btw are now illegal) at 8pm. Yes. Clean up your image and get your act together!
I got harrassed by a group of police men dressed in mufti with an unmarked bus just as i was on my way 2 d bank. I was ordered to go into d bus while dey searched my fone for any fraudulent msgs or transactions. Guess who i saw in their bus? ..... LKT. Apparently he was mistaken for a yahoo boy and ordered into their bus. U can imagine my shock when i saw him in the bus. I almost asked him if dey didnt know who he was, but i decided 2 jst shut up n face my case. I was eventually let go after dey found nothing criminal on me. Dunno wat hpnd 2 LKT tho... Naija police na wa!!!
Forget all these Know your rights and Police is your friend matter! If an area thief is caught and is taken to the police (instead of jungle justice meted out on him) ,the first thing you'll be asked to do is to drop a specified amount. Nigerian Police when be like bad voluntary corp.
See as them pose for the picture o! Who believe them? Them get another work than to terrorize innocent citizens? Anybody dey see them dey perform their normal duties? Them all look highly underworked. Drink alcohol, smoke marijuana on duty, hold gun, shout Ewelle. You go dey fear make the gun nor make mistake go off because the mouth be like wetin dey face your direction.
Well as for me I hope I would ave become a lawyer before this thing happens to me so dah I can destroy them and to 2shotz they came so that u can settle them nt for apologies sake
Mtcheeeeeew...
ReplyDeleteClearly all this happened cuz 2shotz is a celebrity. Na dem sabi. I just pray i never get in any kind of police wahala whatsoever.
