Nigerian artist accuses PH police of brutality, says he might go blind on his right eye
A Nigerian artist, Arinze Stanley has accused the police officers in Porthacourt of brutality.
In a tweet he shared via his twitter handle, he said his first day in Porthacourt, on the 26th of September was the same day he was beaten by some police officers. He said he stands the risk of getting blind on his right eye.
Stanley said he brought the incident to Twitter because he has reported to the police but they are allegedly trying to protect the officer who he claims assaulted him.
“As I type this with my left eye that has only begun to function, the police man that did this hasnt been arrested.. His colleagues who were with him have refused to give out his identity. The area command that I went to report this case has done absolutely nothing!, he wrote
The biggest lie in Nigeria is police is your friend. Naija police don’t know there work,all they know is collecting bribe
Thats Nigeria police for you, Nigeria police is not our friends there enemy to us I the country. They suppose to have identify the officer if there truly our friend.
Police in this country is not useful in anyway, police that suppose to protect the country there are the one been into terrorist, do the proper follow up to get the officer because he must not fo free.
Police always say they are our friends but reverse is the case in our country, they (police) always belief that they have the power to do anything without being asked, it’s unfair of our Police to be doing this to its citizens.
The pH police pardon him and forgive him instead his right eye go blind.
Why our Police behaving like small god? If civilians resist any attempt by the police officer to subdued them that’s when they will start mishandling people for the crime they didn’t commit. Our Police inspector general should quickly look into this and take drastic step.
Nigeria aristist was accused by pH polices, he mind not be at fault instead they should pardon forsake of his eyes
That’s how police use to do when they know that we are harmless. Even they have killed some innocent souls on the issue of arguing with one another. What causes the DPO to investigate this issue and brought the culprit to book. There is a lot of Injustice in this country. May Almighty God help us.
they arrest him oo because if ordinary person do it now they will send him to Jill for doing so
Police are evil people and they can’t be our friends. They are already our enemies
That is the type of system we find ourselves in
A country where the police is always brutalizing the people they are meant to protect
This officer must be arrested, for his actions
They always like to mollest innocent citizens
The police are very evil and it in there nature
There is no type of bad story you will not hear in this country
The police who always tell us that they are our friends are still the people that will brutalize us
Every now and then they act in a manner as if the innocent masses are in enemity with them
Why do they want to blind this guy, it is very very unfair nah
The police hierarchy should please re orientate their officers so that they will know how to act professionally in relating to people especially to innocent civilians
Police men with evil mind,,I think they should detained him for that stupidity act..
May we not fall victim to the hands of these so called police
This is so bad,why are they running down the reputation of the same system they work in…the atrocities by police force are quite alarming.
Police can not be a problem as you alegde. Ask him what he has done.
My brother its a pity thats Nigerian police for you, had it been you knew that such a thing awaits you in Port Harcourt you would have chilled where you have been since o. The people told to protect us are the ones now killing us after they will tell you people that police is your friend.
My dear you gat to endure nah because what has happened has happened.
You shouldn’t be surprised because even our government is corrupt
I can never trust police, they are corrupt
We have bunch of untrained and ignorant officers in the police force. How can an ignorant man perform his duty well?
