The Lagos State Police Command has vowed to arrest a man, identified as a truck driver, who broke a bottle on the head of a policeman in a video.

Muyiwa Adejobi, the spokesman of the Lagos Police Command, made this known in a statement on Wednesday.

In the now-viral video which surfaced on social media, the policeman, who the command identified as Daudu Ajayi, and the truck driver were seen standing at the back of a truck, with the driver shouting at the officer to leave the vehicle.

In the midst of the argument, the driver who was holding a bottle, suddenly hit it on the policeman’s head.

A voice in the video’s background was heard urging the truck driver to smash the bottle on the policemen’s head.

Confirming the incident, Adejobi explained that Ajayi, the officer in the video, had chased down the truck driver following a hit-and-run accident that occurred around the Oko-Oba area of Agege.

The Lagos PPRO said an investigation had been launched into the attack on the police officer, who, he said, sustained varying degree of injuries.

The statement read: “The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State, CP Hakeem Odumosu, was taken aback by the act of the driver and some individuals in the viral video and ordered that the case be thoroughly investigated while the driver and his accomplices involved in the dastardly act be caused to face the full wrath of the law.

“The fact of the case is that on Wednesday 21st April, 2021, about 12.30 pm, there was a case of hit and run serious accident involving a vehicle with Reg No BDG 756 YA, which hit a camry car with Reg No. KJA 281 GQ, and as a result a motorcycle rider, Ashiru Saadu, m, was affected and seriously injured.

“In the process, the driver of the Camry car waited but the driver of the Dyna vehicle with Reg. No. BDG 746 YA escaped from the scene. Then, the Traffic Officer gave him a chase and was stopped at Pipeline Area Oko-Oba, Lagos. The driver alighted from the vehicle, pounced on the Traffic Officer, and broke a bottle on his head. The officer sustained varying degree of injuries.

“The Commissioner of Police has again warned the general public to desist from launching attacks on police personnel and other security agencies in the state as such will be tactically resisted and culprits (attackers) be dealt with in line with the provisions of the law.

“He has vowed to get the fleeing driver arrested and prosecuted so as to serve as a deterrent to others like him in our society; and to ascertain that the command will not tolerate any act of lawlessness in the state.”
