I've never seen a more criminally minded police force like the Nigerian Police
No words or statement that describe most of them than this. Infact, they are lisence day-armed robbers on our road under pretex of check point.

100 % correct, the dr license would be ceased if he attends to gunshot survivors without police report.
and hospital closed.

the idea is to avoid treatment to criminals that survive gun battles with the police, the mistake is that the government classify its citizens as criminals if u are not on uniform
What nonsense, what a stupid law. If you treat and call the police simultaneously, for handing over.
What difference does it make? Why do we reason stupidly? Nawa oo

I got to hear of this when a man survived a gunshot from armed robbers. This law is all shades of stupid.

This is unacceptable na... why will a police office kill a fellow human cos of bribe... answer is POVERTY.


It's not poverty, it's greediness and selfishness.
The same police whose salaries has just been increased by the federal government, killing because of bribe.

I'm from kogi, I see these police men around Nataco in lokoja day and night, the only thing they do at Nataco check point is to collect money from drivers, I have seen them many times.

I hate police!

What is more disheartening is, I heard if you're shot and you manage to get your self to a hospital or a health care facility, you'd be asked to go get a police report in that state.

Please someone confirm this for me is it true? If true, how bad. What happened to treating and arresting the suspect, saving the life then inquire what went wrong?

Please someone clarify before I dive into conclusion

Magichand:
On Tuesday, a police inspector identified as Mohammed Usman allegedly shot and wounded two drivers in Lokoja, Kogi State over alleged refusal to give bribe.

The incident was said to have occurred at the Ibro Motor Park, opposite the Lokoja International Market. Ibrahim Yakubu, the branch chairman of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), said that trouble started when one of their drivers was stopped by a police team at a checkpoint in Zango area on the Lokoja-Okene highway and ordered to offer them a bribe.

According to him, the driver refused and continued on his journey towards Lokoja. He, however, added that the policemen chased after the driver to the Ibro Motor Park.

“We were just sitting at the park at about 11am, when we started hearing sporadic gunshots. The next thing, we saw one of our fellow drivers run to the union office. The next thing, we saw two policemen follow him. Our union officials addressed them and they left.

The driver said he left his vehicle by the roadside and when we went there, we met a police inspector inside the vehicle. We told him that we are taking the vehicle to the park and he followed us inside. On getting to the union office at the motor park, we told him that we had already settled the matter with the other two policemen.

Upon hearing that, he (Inspector Mohammed Usman) became furious and brought out his gun and first shot on the ground. As he continued his sporadic shooting, a bullet hit one of our drivers, Mohammed Attah, on the leg, while another driver, Emmanuel, was hit in the stomach.

Following the incident, the other policemen stationed outside drove into the park with their hilux bus, and quickly rescued the inspector and drove out.

We then went to B Division Police Station to report the matter and the DPO followed us with the victims to Federal Medical Centre and from there we went to the state police command, to report the matter. The CP has ordered that the policemen involved should be detained until the outcome of victims in the hospital.”

The spokesman of the Kogi State Police Command, William Aya, who confirmed the incident, explained that the policemen who were on stop-and-search operation stopped the driver, but that he refused, and as a result, they pursued him, on the suspicion that he might be carrying incriminating items.

He added that the driver got to a town near a motor park and abandoned his vehicle by the roadside and ran into the park. He said one of the policemen went after him, and that in the process, there was a misunderstanding which led to accidental discharge.

Aya said that the policemen involved have been detained, while the matter is being investigated by the State CID. He added that appropriate sanctions would be taken against those found wanting, at the close of investigation.

It was the case and I learnt they've repealed the directive but I doubt this has been effectively communicated to the healthcare officials. Nigeria is not a normal place, guy.

He shot two drivers.

Were they both driving (riding inside) one car, or there were two drivers of two different cars?
Who shoots first driver of a car, and then goes to another car and shoots the 2nd car's driver again.
