Corp members sent to Kirikiri prison for fighting policemen
A Magistrate court sitting in Ogba has ordered that four persons, a music producer and three National Youth Corps members be remanded at the Kirikiri Maximum Correctional facility in Apapa, Lagos.
According to Lagos Police PPRO, Benjamin Hundeyin, the four were arrested after a video of them assaulting policemen went viral on social media.
The defendants were arraigned in court on Tuesday, August 30, 2022, for “serious assault” on officers.
They are 33-year-old producer, Ehis Tito Odigie, and Miracle Onukuoforobi, 27, a student of Igbinedion University.
Others include 31-year-old Bolade Richard and 26-year-old Oyedeji Motunrayo, who are both corps members.
In the video which captured the incident, the young men could be seen engaging a group of policemen in fisticuffs.
One of them was captured on film pushing off a policeman’s cap which he later seized after picking it from the ground.
According to the Lagos State Police Command, both parties had video recordings which were reviewed.
No conclusions drawn yet. Both sides have video recordings, which will all be reviewed. All occupants of the car are currently at the station. They are: Ehis Tito Odigie ‘m’ aged 33, self acclaimed music producer; Oyedeji Motunrayo ‘f’ aged 26, corps member; Miracle 1/2 pic.twitter.com/FO3ZTfaV7z

“The police officers too are undergoing questioning. Investigation is ongoing.
“One thing remains sure: everyone, police inclusive, found culpable will face the law,” Hundeyin added.
In other news, another video which went viral captured a police officer resisting arrest which was being enforced by a security guard after he allegedly broke the law while on official duty.
The officer who is believed to have been under the influence of an intoxicating substance, was reportedly trying to extort a lady.
The private security officer who observed what was happening, intervened and tried to arrest the police man.
He, however, refused to be taken away by the security man who had grabbed him by his uniform.
The lady in a car could be heard telling the policeman to obey the law and follow the private security man.
