The Ordeal Of Solomon Bawa In The Hands Of The Nigeria Police Force, Nasarawa by DesChyko: 8:02am On Nov 19, 2023 |
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6JiOzxfdhg?si=Fd4ZsEkI6wk0A82o This is a video story shared by Brekete Family. It is about the ordeal of a Nigerian citizen in the hands of the Nigerian Police Force. Solomon Bawa hails from Ajaga Family in Karo LGA of Nasarawa State. In 2019, he was on his way to repair the tyre of his pickup when he was accosted by the Police who asked him if he knew any Bawa Gambo. He replied in the negative but they asked him to enter their vehicle to follow them to the station at Masaka. On reaching there, they asked about his identity again and he told them his name, Solomon Bawa. After pressuring him to identify as Bawa Gambo and not getting a result, they took away his belt and shoes, then locked him up in a cell until daybreak. He kept asking why he was locked up and got no response. Instead he got beaten and later transferred to State CID, Lafia. Here, he was beaten repeatedly and forced to identify as Bawa Gambo or tell them the whereabouts. An Igbo trader who saw him, travelled to Solomon's home on his behalf, to inform his family of what is going on. His mother came to attest that his name is Solomon but was given no attention. Instead, he got beaten by one Inspector Usman Amgbashi to the extent that he got his forehead injured and lost his entire right arm to shrinking and paralysis. Another Policeman, Inspector Ado Bature, advised him to accept the identity of Bawa Gambo or face more beating, especially as it was getting too much and may lead to his death and nothing will happen. Solomon had to accept, in the hopes that when he gets to court, he can explain himself. But this was not to be as he spent some months there. The only visitor he frequently had, his mother, died about 2 months after he had been held at the State CID. After then, no one visited anymore and Solomon could not help crying everyday, at his loss. He was then transferred to Lafia Prison without being charged to court. He spent about 3 years in prison until he met with the Comptroller and explained his situation and ill-health. He was then transferred to Keffi Prison, where he spent another year but was getting some form of treatment on the now deformed hand. Respite came in the form of a human rights lawyer, Barrister C.Y. Masha, who listened to his story when she came to the Prison. She took it upon herself to verify his identity by going to his hometown and retrieving his certificates, then pursued the matter until he was due to appear in court. It turns out that the said 'Bawa Gambo' had already appeared and bailed himself at the State CID while Solomon remained imprisoned. After the first court session, the police never showed up again, despite Musa making multiple appearance with his lawyer, Barrister C.Y. Masha. He was then asked to provide two surety so he can be bailed, which he did. He went to retrieve his phone from State CID. He saw Inspector Usman Amgbashi, approached him and greeted him. He proceeded to tell him that he came for his phone but was warned never to step his foot there again or get beaten. On October 4, after another no-show at the courts by the Police, he was advised by the same Igbo trader to go to Brekete Family to tell his story and possibly, get justice. Today, the matter is being handled by the IGP himself, who called for a thorough investigation. It's a bag of mixed fortunes ahead for Solomon, who now has to get justice with a deformed right hand, a permanent scar on his head, a late mother and four years of his life gone 'for nothing' Police Reaction Recall a recent viral video highlighting allegations of injustice and brutality? Today, the IGP took personal interest and attended to the case. Mr. Bawa accused police operatives at Nasarawa CID of wrongful detention and brutality. The IGP promptly ordered a team at FHQ to thoroughly investigate this matter, ensuring swift action for justice. Rest assured, justice will prevail. Thank you. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0VJuLwShsQHJPwp7sE8X8sSvEPnSs1KLdV3tB6UJ666tevpZncDT79pVn7JGJPnhyl&id=100064453009372&mibextid=2JQ9oc 14 Likes 3 Shares

We cannot say we should hide in our homes to keep away from Police trouble. We just pray it doesn't happen to us as we go about our daily lives. I watched this video with my Yoruba best friend. I'm Igbo by tribe. It took a man whose surname is similar sounding to his to condemn his right forelimb. It took an Igbo man to first let people know his situation and to direct him to where the world can hear his story. Help can come from anywhere. I hope we are learning some important lessons. 331 Likes 28 Shares |

This is unfortunate, ordinary citizen being endangered specie courtesy of those who are supposed to protect and defend him! While there is handful of some good things happening, there are tones of several bad, horrible and terrible things happening within this one space called Nigeria.

Dont be surprised this is another case of arresting innocent citizen n using him to swap for some sentenced criminal .This goes on in Nigeria prisions.An innocent person can be arrested on d road n beaten until he accepts an unknown identity ,then d real criminal is set free while d innocent one is replaced in jail without court involvement. 32 Likes 4 Shares |

Hmmm what I don't understand about all this is when new People are been recruited to NPF every year they still act like the old ones no difference... Which means if all the old ones are all sacked the new ones will still act like this nd they're even more brutal... So I think all this bodycam, CCTV be put in dere cars and office the institution jus need some things to be put in place to deal with all this excess.... 16 Likes 1 Share |
