The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) on Saturday confirmed the shooting of two of its officers on duty in Abia. An eyewitness had earlier told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that the officers were shot by security aides to a top government official in the state.

The Public Education Officer of the Corps, Mr Bisi Kazeem, who confirmed the shooting to NAN, was silent on the identity of those responsible. Kazeem said the matter had been reported to the police for investigation, while the victims were receiving treatment in an undisclosed hospital.

“It is true that our officers were shot this afternoon. The matter has been reported to the police and we are awaiting the outcome of their investigation. “The wounded officers have been hospitalised, and they are in stable condition. “This will not deter our men from carrying out their duties, but would rather embolden them to make our roads safer for Nigerians,” he said.

NAN learnt that the incident occurred at Umuikea Junction in Isiala Ngwa South Local Government Area. According to the eyewitness, an FRSC patrol team had flagged down the vehicle conveying the government official’s wife for seatbelt violation.

“The lady was in her vehicle with two other females and none of them was wearing their seatbelts. “As the road safety officers were talking to them about it, they flared up and started assaulting the officers. “The big man’s wife called her husband’s security aides, who rushed to the scene and started shooting sporadically.

“In the process, one of the FRSC officers was hit in the arm, and the other in neck and waists,” the eyewitness said.(NAN)

only in the Zoo

only in the Zoo

Yes! Biafra Zoo!

Only in Nigeria

We are in a country that has HUMAN BEINGS as her number one natural disaster.

Our cartoon dream go make sense die.

We have been watching live play of the movie scripted by Chinua Achebe in his Things Fall Apart like making an old woman dance naked in the market square for alleged intimacy, ostracising a woman for allegedly killing her family members over a parcel of land etc

Pretty sure when our cartoon dream is finally brought to fruition, it will be time to switch over to The Animal Farm By George Orwell, where the Seven Commandments of Animalism always dreamt of by the farm animals were later reduced to a single maxim viz; ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL BUT...

Baboons and monkeys everywhere. Sorry it is jackals and hyenas everywhere. If I hear anyone calling this country an animal kingdom?

Wow! The height of impunity. Even though I don't like these FRSC guys much, this one no make sense.

I hope you know what part of the Zoo this event occurred in and the animals who ordered the attack?

This is nothing but abuse of power,it is only in Nigeria that some people are above the law.

Typical wicked Wawa woman.

Serves them right(FRSC) Useless,Wicked & Heartless people.Hiss!!!

FRSC own self too much. You don't have to be radical to carry out your job.

They should make all necessary fines available to the public. Once you fail, they should give you a ticket straight. This will deter others but the stupid FRSC officials will like to collect birbe and harras you unnecessarily.

"Shot them"... I will say
