@HoodSodiq: “The way they behave, you would think the government doesn’t pay them at all.”
@Mazimum_: “One day, one trouble. This is unprofessionalism at its absolute peak. How does a dispute over ₦200 escalate to a man losing his sight? Lives are too precious to be risked over such trivial matters. When will accountability and professionalism become the norm in law enforcement?”
@Jaysings001: “Our security agencies need to do better, and we, the citizens too needs to do better. There are some things that are avoidable, now he lost his eyes because of 2h. I hope he gets justice.”
