An Air Force corporal slapped a woman Chief Superintendent of Police(CSP) three times and proceeded to punched a sergeant who was with her.
As usual, the corporal will never been identified. If anything, his colleagues, including his superiors officer will hide and shield him.
Such confrontations and rivalry between police, air force, soldiers and navy have been on for long.
According to Punch, the lance corporal, who did not wear a
name tag, but works in the office of the Airport
Commandant, Group Captain Victor Ajiboye slapped the woman, identified
as Felicia Victor, three times for resisting attempts to tow a patrol
vehicle.
He also punched a sergeant who drove the patrol vehicle on the mouth.
A senior air force official, identified
as Pilot Abdullahi, who witnessed the incident, was said to have
intervened by disarming the officer and ordering his detention.
The lance corporal said he flagged down the senior police officers at a checkpoint but they didn’t stop on time.
A witness said: “The sergeant driving came down and
explained that he didn’t know he flagged him down. But the lance
corporal said he would puncture the tyres. As he made to puncture one of the tyres,
the CSP blocked him, and he slapped her. He went to the other side of
the bus, and she followed him there, and he slapped her again. The sergeant, who drove the vehicle,
challenged him and he punched him. The CSP asked the air-force man if he
was drunk, and that upset him to slap her for the third time.”
The woman's face was swollen.
The corporal should not just been charged for assaulting a senior officer, but should also charged for hitting a woman. If proper investigation is carried, it would be discovered that he also beats his wife.
I can however bet you that nothing will be done to him...soldiers, navy and air force don't like the police and always look for ways to humiliate police personnel irrespective of their ranks and positions.
