ABUJA: Two cops beat up unidentified man (Video)

A 31-second video showing two traffic policemen raining blows and head-butts on an unidentified man along the Ahmadu Bello Way, in the Federal Capital Territory is trending on social media.

The viral video captured and posted on Facebook by a motorist, identified as Aishat, showed the policemen, both wearing traffic jackets pummeling the man as bystanders made to separate him from the enraged cops- an incident which caused serious traffic at the Muhammadu Buhari Junction.

Though it was unclear, the thrid person being beaten by the policemen also seemed like a policeman himself.

“Traffic wardens are fighting by Muhammadu Buhari Junction along Ahmadu Bello Way. Please, send help there right now. They have caused congestion,” Aisha wrote.

As at the time of filing in this report, the FCT Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Usen Omorodion, was yet to comment on the incident even as the division the policemen were attached to was yet to be determined.
