I was also a victim of police brutality. It happened twice

First was in 2003. On that faithful night I was hanging out with my sister in law. Then a car head lamp flashed at us and I said WHO IS THIS FLASHING US? . The police stepped down with his riffle harassing us as if we were criminals. He pointed gun at us and asked us to enter the patrol vehicle. He started asking us questions. We only had few naira. He said we would be taken to prison bla bla. . The threat was real. We started begging. He later dropped us in the middle of nowhere after hours of roaming.

I was lucky. What if he shot at me. I would have become a history.

My second experience was at the Malaysia embassy in Nigeria.

This was in 2015 when I wanted to leave Nigeria for Malaysia.

A Nigerian police nearly shot me dead at the entrance of the embassy in Abuja.

This is how it happened...

We were many that arrived the embassy early because we were in the embassy a day before and we couldn't register because there were too many applicants.

We decided to distribute queue number to each other so that we won't borther to engage in physical queue.

Long story short, the police sometimes take bribe from individuals that were desperate to enter the embassy despite their lateness. So, the police insisted that we won't use the queue number. He insisted that we must engage in physical queue under the sun. I argued with him trying to convince him to see the reason why physical queue is bad. Next thing he did was to cocked his gun and pointed it towards me. I had to give up to avoid being shot at.

Hello, you claim Saheed have reached you claiming innocent. Is it possible for anybody to hack into your bank account and be using it to collect payment for business done? Think about it

Can a hacker who hack your phone use your bank details to be receiving payment?

We are not children. Your phone can be hacked likewise your bank details. But, hackers don't use any hack bank account to be receiving payment because you have to blocked your account after 24hrs

I'm finding it hard to believe a police man will suggest this kin thing for this scenario

They only capitalised on your fear. Krav maga is the way and a policeman is as useless as dustbin once you disarm him of his rusty rifle,and disarming him means hez going down.
