An Angry Mob has beaten an officer of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) for pulling a driver out of a moving truck in Delta state.

The FRSC officer identified as C. U. Mgbede was seriously beaten for forcefully pulling out the driver from a moving truck that almost cost his life.

The incident which took place on Thursday, August 27 in Benin-Asaba Expressway, Asaba almost claimed the lives of the FRSC officer and the truck driver.

Eyewitness reports that the driver landed on the paved road and was gasping for breath, attracting the mob, who pounced on the officer.

FRSC response team arrived at the scene of the incident and took the truck driver and Mgbede to the Federal Medical Centre, Asaba for proper treatments, Punch Reports.

Speaking on the issue, FRSC Sector Commander, Delta State, Alphonsus Godwin denied the officer pulling the driver out of the truck.

Godwin said, “The man was asked to stop at the checkpoint because he was not using the seatbelt; rather than stopping, he moved ahead and the marshal jumped into the vehicle and took control of the steering wheel.

“He stopped the vehicle immediately and was trying to impound the vehicle when the mob stormed the scene and beat the officer to a pulp.

“Before our response team got to the scene, the mob had brutalized the officer; our men carried the two of them, who was laying on the ground, to the FMC, Asaba. This is one of the challenges we are facing on the job when vehicle owners try to resist arrest,” he stated.

wish i was There to add my slap to his head

Why did the driver refuse to stop In the first place. Is he above the law? We all know the attitude of an average Nigerian driver while on steering. People should just learn to obey laws. I believe if all citizens decide not to offer men of FRSC bribe, that will be the beginning of the reformation. If you commit a traffic offence and you are booked accordingly simply go and pay the fine as been done in other countries and stop this unnessary attacks on men of FRSC simply because they are not armed.

Hope he was well pounded.

And the FRSC jumped into the truck. Toh

Is that an enough reason for him to drag the steering of a moving truck with the driver? Therefore he deserves the beating

Them for kill that officer sef

I do not understand the reason behind the irrational and despicable actions of some law enforcement officers. If the drive defaults, take his vehicle particular and call the next control post on the expressway.

have you ever seen in any other part of the world where traffic officers use their bodies as barricade to stop vehicles indiscriminately?

Why would a road safety official jump on moving truck and wrestle the wheel of a moving vehicle on highway?

Are you stupid or an FRSC agent or both?
