A female police officer was filmed harassing a bus driver for allegedly refusing to pay a stipulated bribe of N50, after he was stopped on the streets of Ikotun, Lagos state.
Despite being paid to secure lives, properties and maintain order in the society, some members of the Nigerian police force have chosen to indulge in incriminating activities.
An aggrieved Facebook user shared a story of how a bus driver was harassed by a policewoman, around the Ikotun area of Lagos state, for allegedly refusing to part with N50 which he was supposed to hand over as a bribe.
Even though there were two police officers present, the plain clothed officer insisted on holding onto the driver despite shouts from onlookers for her to let go.
