See How Policeman Was Caught Red Handed Beating And Kicking Pregnant Woman On The Road- Video Goes Viral
The Nigeria Police Force Public Relations Officer (FPRO), Prince Olumuyiwa Adejobi, has reacted to a disturbing video circulating on social media that shows a police officer physically assaulting a pregnant woman in public. The video, which has since gone viral, has sparked widespread outrage among Nigerians, with many calling for immediate action against the officer involved. Police brutality has long been a major concern in Nigeria, and this incident has once again brought the issue to the forefront of public discourse.
The footage, originally shared on X (formerly known as Twitter), captures the moment when a uniformed Nigerian police officer forcefully drags a pregnant woman before kicking her as she falls to the ground. The attack, which took place in broad daylight, was only stopped when onlookers and fellow police officers intervened. The video has raised concerns about the conduct of law enforcement officers and the repeated cases of excessive force being used on civilians. Many Nigerians have expressed their outrage, demanding justice for the victim and accountability for the officer responsible.
A Twitter user who shared the video condemned the actions of the officer, expressing disbelief at how quickly those tasked with maintaining peace and order resort to violence. The user wrote, *” These are the people who are supposed to keep the peace in society. Look how fast they resort to violence. This pregnant lady was used as a kicking bag. ” * This statement resonates with the frustrations of many Nigerians who have long criticized the excessive use of force by law enforcement agents. The video quickly gained traction, with thousands of people sharing and commenting on it, further fueling discussions about police misconduct in Nigeria.
Among those who reacted to the video was the Force Public Relations Officer (FPRO), Prince Olumuyiwa Adejobi. Responding to the footage, he tweeted, *” I want to believe this was the case in Uyo. . . ” * His comment suggests he may have knowledge of the incident or its location, but it remains unclear whether any disciplinary action has been taken against the officer involved. The public, however, is demanding immediate action, with many calling on the Inspector General of Police to ensure that the officer faces appropriate consequences for his actions.
This incident is yet another example of the ongoing issues of police brutality in Nigeria. Reports of law enforcement officers using excessive force, harassing civilians, and engaging in misconduct continue to surface. This has led to growing distrust between the public and the police, with many questioning whether officers are truly committed to protecting the people they serve. The issue of police brutality was a major factor behind the #EndSARS protests in 2020, which sought to address widespread misconduct within the Nigerian police force. However, despite promises of reform, cases like this continue to emerge, leading many to believe that not enough is being done to address the problem.
As the video continues to circulate online, many Nigerians are waiting for an official response from the authorities. The public wants assurance that such behavior will not be tolerated and that police officers who engage in violence against civilians will be held accountable. Without decisive action, incidents like this will only further damage the already fragile trust between law enforcement and the Nigerian people.
