Right now. My car is Infront of the protest so am joining the protest to prevent damage of my property by trailer boys who brought 10trailers to block both sides of the road. Heavy road block and protest like never before.
What happened???
A trailer parked to give fuel to another trailer who was low on fuel, SARS officials in a yellow bus crossed them and demanded for settlement. One thing led to another and they open fire on the drivers. I was in my car at first then I left and ran away but I came back to join the protest to prevent them from spoiling my car. I am not a Lazy Nigerian ooooo.
According to Punch Metro, it was learnt that three of the policemen faced orderly trial in connection with the incident, while the remaining two were investigated after recuperating in the hospital where they were admitted after sustaining injuries.
It was gathered that a scuffle occurred between the policemen and Aliyu over the latter’s refusal to give N50 bribe to the policemen during a “stop and search” operation.
