Nigerian man has revealed how Lagos state Police allegedly arrested three corp members for driving a Benz.
According to David who shared the story on Twitter, the corp members were arrested at their community Development Service (CDS), Eti-Osa Local Government office, Lagos.
The officers were said to have tried driving away with the vehicle after the arrest but were stopped immediately.
David further revealed that the three victims were later rescued upon intervention from other corp members.
He wrote;
Supposed police officers just kidnapped three uniformed “corpers”, on CDS day, in front of the Local Government Office at Eti-Osa, Lagos. We were able to immediately recover two of them but one is still missing. All of this happened in seconds, in broad day light!
Hours later, he added;
Please, this kidnapped corper has since been released. Well done to everyone who stood gallant this morning.
My update is late because my phone died.
Shocking event though. All my fingers are pointed to the Nigerian Police Force and a certain peace-loving Governor.
No, I will not refer to this as an arrest. It was a kidnap.
These corpers were sitting peacefully in their Benz. They were suddenly surrounded by men (in regular clothes) who pointed a gun at them and yanked them from said Benz.
Their offence? “Why is a corper driving a Benz?”
Here is a video that tells some part of the story. A few of these kidnappers tried to leave in the Benz but fortunately, they were swarmed by corpers. Look, there’s a lot of infuriating audacity on display! May God save us all from this country.
