Lagos police allegedly demand “Christmas package” from motorists in Surulere

"Is this the change?" Lagos motorist who claims police extorted money from him asks.

We thought Lagos police officers were supposed to ensure the security of lives and property.

After @Olabodeeo shared this on Instagram, on Tuesday afternoon, we’re rethinking….

These policemen are currently at Alaka on Ikorodu Road (yes, it’s also called Alaka in Surulere) demanding bribe from motorists.

They just exploited myself and Mofolusade Sonaike they said we didn’t have Road Worthiness paper.

In an attempt to search for it, because we were with driving grandma’s car, the police man who rushed us threatened us if he didn’t get something from us.

He ended up collecting 5k from us. Upon calling a family friend, we were informed that it’s not the duty of the police to demand Road of worthiness.

These policemen are everywhere viciously exploiting people. It’s Christmas and they mean business.

Respected and concerned authorities, Inspector General of Police, others should see to this.

This was not the change we voted for. Monkey dey work, baboon dey chop. Spread the word. They must pay for this.
