Bail Is Free – Nigerian Police by ediko5(m): 10:59am On Nov 22, 2014 |
In all the Nigerian police stations you enter, there is a notice with inscription – “Bail Is Free”. This is a law that has never been respected by the police. It is almost impossible for someone to be taken to the Nigerian police station for any offence and being released without paying money for bail whether the person is guilty or not, even witnesses to incident who are taken to the station are sometimes threatened to pay money for bail, yet “Bail Is Free”. Legally, bail should come with a receipt, yet people pay millions of Naira at the police station without any receipt, yet “Bail Is Free”. Nigeria is a country in which more than 80% of her constitutional laws are not practiced including the issue of bail. Sometimes I wonder if the police are salary earners because some police stations are like banks where money are being deposited every moments. I urge all well meaning Nigerians to rise up & fight corruption in Nigeria. The police should be stopped from extorting money from people in the name of BAIL.

Bail is free only if you go to the police post/station with a lawyer. Police are always scared of lawyers. 1 Like |

himkers: My dear no be no again oo. because in some police station they have their own corrupt police lawyers who challenge other lawyers. The country that we are is a very funny one where constituted laws are not practiced at all. |

ediko5:Sometime ago i was in a commercial tricycle popularly called 'Marwa' where the owner took one way as a result of serious traffic jam and was accosted by three policemen at a junction. The tricycle man lied to them that there was an armed robbery gang not too far that warranted his driving on a wrong lane. Before u could hear Jack Robinson the three policemen called themselves and took to their heels. They did not know that it was just a ploy by the driver to get himself free. lol. |

This is a serious case in our country, Nigeria. Even the Judiciary arms; lawyers who know the law still allow their client pay certain fee for bail. Just tired of this country. |
