Barely two weeks after a police
sergeant, Chris Omeleze, was dismissed after being caught on video
demanding a bribe of N25,000, another footage showing a policewoman
negotiating a bribe of N100 has surfaced on YouTube.
The video footage, which circulated on
the video-sharing website on Monday, showed the policewoman sitting in a
commercial bus which she had apprehended at a yet-to-be identified
location in Lagos.
The driver and the conductor, who had
passengers in their bus, were seen making efforts to pacify the
policewoman so that they could be allowed to continue with their
journey; but their pleas went unheeded.
Soon, the driver got infuriated and slammed the policewoman, saying, “Don’t abuse me because of N100. How much is N100? Me I don pass N100.” The policewoman replied, “E no concern me. Pay me my own money.”
When the driver realised that she was hell-bent on collecting the bribe, he asked his bus conductor to give her the money.
“Give her N100. I will return it to you
later,” the driver said in Yoruba language. As soon as the driver handed
down the instruction, the policewoman alighted from the bus and walked
towards the conductor.
Just as the two were moving towards the back of the bus, a voice from the background lamented, “You pay for police, you pay for agbero.” The policewoman was then seen with another female colleague of hers walking away from the scene.
The video was shot by someone sitting in the bus but it was uploaded on YouTube by one Afro Finlandia.
