Narrating his experience, the actor said, 'yesterday, after
I had finished from a scheduled meeting with Charles Otudor I left the Eko
Hotel and joined the gradually building traffic leading on to Lekki'.
Only a few minutes from my meeting, had I unfortunately run
into a minor collision with another driver, Mrs Mosunmola Ilori, at the Lekki
Phase 1 roundabout. We both inspected the damage(s), conferred and thought
first, to get off the road for oncoming traffic.
Just less than 10feet away from all this were the Lastma and
Police, sharing the police post at the roundabout.
All I asked, was their assistance (witnessed by Mrs Ilori)
in getting some barricades off the road for us to park properly and this
scenario I have just described, turned into a full blown fiasco, seeing 4
police officers pounce on me and 2 others on Mrs Ilori and her niece. I have
come off this incident with stitches in my mouth and chin. Mrs Ilori as well,
to the full glare and amazement of pedestrians and moving traffic, was ruffled
up, beat, and dragged on the tarred ground. The Leading man here was one
Officer IDEH DONATUS who severally pointed a gun in my chest.
I hereby humbly call on the executive governor of Lagos
state, @akinwunmiambode the Vice President @profosinbajo the @policenglagos and
its Officers, to kindly exercise the authority of your offices in addressing
these civil injustices filed at the #MarokoPoliceStation
Myself, Mrs Ilori, her niece and every other Nigerian
citizen, don’t need to feel vulnerable with the police. We appreciate them for
their efforts in Protecting Lives and Property,but not for them to be THE
THREAT!
THE VICTIMS LIST IS OPEN-ENDED.
POLICE BRUTALITY MUST STOP!
TAG THE STATE GOVERNOR
TAG THE POLICE COMMISSIONER
