I am a site man so do not mind my level of english construction.


On this faithful day, I and two of my younger brothers went out to get some stuffs so as to prepare meal. On our way coming back, a small bus popularly called korope occupied by three police men overtook us and in less than two minutes they parked and flagged me down..I was asked if I have anything in my butt and I replied no, was intructed to open it so he could checking and after checking...he requested for my particulars and driver's license, I brought everything out and after going through the papers, he asked me to bring out the rest of the papers and I told him that's all the papers and he was like NO OOO oga you no get cmc or cms ( can't remember very well) and vehicle particular. I was so confused then told him I've never heard of all those things he mentioned. He then asked again, oga who be the owner of this vehicle and I told him the car is for me...then where is the change of owner...he mentioned (the previous owner's name is the one on the papers) then I explained to him that I was a victim of armed robbery last December and how I lost those papers, also showed him a police report I made over my driver's license. That's how we started o...he then took me to their oga and I explained everything to the oga again and the oga looked me with a long face saying so you no get any proof to show me say you buy the motor true true, I will say make them carry you go station o!. I smiled and said it hasn't got to that and before I complete my sentence he has told the junior office to start taking me to the station. After arriving the station their oga asked me if I have any proof that I really bought the vehicle and it wasn't stole...and I said yes that I have a written agreement between me and the seller and he asked to go and bring it. I rushed home to get the written agreement and after he went through it.....he then said oga you will bring 20k before you can get your car out of this station or you will have to call on the seller. I was like haba then he told me he won't release the written agreement for me, then asked why? and I was really shocked by his response. he told me that the written agreement is enough to bail me out but I must pay 20k or I call on seller with two witnesses. omo I was so confused and that's how the begin began. The seller has travelled out of the country and I've mentioned this to the police man earlier. After serious begging I later payed 5k and my car was released to me at about 11:40pm.
Now I'm more afraid of the police than armed robbers because obviously I've done nothing wrong...and he was indirectly saying to my face that he just need to get money from me. In fact, at a point when I begin him that I don't have such amount of money... he said why will you be driving a car and tell me you don't have money, better go and borrow or go to the atm.

Please just in case such happen next time, is there any step or action one can take to avoid this kind of oppression.

Thanks.
