Colleagues’ stories
According to one of his course mates identified simply as Sanni, “we have been here together since Friday on a training course. Yesterday, Elias was coming from his division in Badagry when he got trapped in traffic, which resulted in his missing the assessment exams.

Another policeman, who spoke to Vanguard on the condition of anonymity, said: “Even if he missed the assessment exams, that is not enough reason for him to take his life. His death is not ordinary.
“Elias was comfortable. He had two cars: an SUV and the Passsat in which he died and two houses in different parts of Lagos. He did not even think of his family, his wife and two children.”

This is what you get as your result if you have used your position to make life hard for people. Police abi kinla! Na xo dem neva stop taking 'better life' from drivers on our high ways. Even our low ways don accomodate them and yet dem dey collect salary and they think say God don sleep? And if you argue with them, na RIP be that. Anyway, this suppose serve as leason to other corrupt men in black.

This is wat happens when the witches in your village does not endorse you being a policeman
