Social media user Oluyemi Fasipe, who shared the videos, alleged that the officers had extorted ₦1 million from three of the corps members involved.

“Dear @BenHundeyin, Your officers today in Surulere extorted 1 million naira from three corps members,” he wrote on Friday. “They were threatened with firearms, kidnapped, and taken to the KAFARU OLUWOLE TINUBU HOUSE AREA C POLICE COMMAND of the @LagosPoliceNG where they were robbed.

“Their offence was the absence of a physical copy of a driver’s license. This is evil!”

In one of the videos, police officers are seen inspecting the occupants’ documents inside a vehicle. The situation escalated, prompting additional officers to arrive at the scene.

At one point, an officer is seen entering the car, instructing them to stop recording the incident and forbidding them from contacting their loved ones.

However, the spokesperson for the Lagos State Police Command, Benjamin Hundeyin, stated that the officers involved in the incident have been summoned.

“The men have been summoned and their trial has commenced,” he wrote on X while responding to Fasipe’s post.

“We urge the complainants to visit the Complaint Response Unit at the State Headquarters to testify at the ongoing trial.”
