Policeman pushes nursing mother and baby off Okada over N100
A nursing mother and her son were injured in an accident caused by
attempt by a policeman to extort N100 from a commercial motorcyclist,
Okadaman, in Ondo town, Ondo State.
Eyewitness account said trouble started when a team of anti-crime police
officers attached to one of the police stations in the town allegedly
mounted a road block in one of the major roads.
Accordin to Vanuard, it was learned that one of the officers, in an
attempt to stop the Okada rider, pulled down the boy and mother, while
the motorcycle was in motion.
Mother and child were rushed to the hospital, while commercial
motorcycle operators staged a peaceful protest to show their displeasure
over alleged incessant extortion by policemen in the town.
