See The Moment Lagos Policeman Was Allegedly Caught Extorting Money With POS

Yesterday,the Lagos State Police Command cleared a policeman attached to the Makinde Police Division of allegation of extortion.


A seven-second clip  filmed by a female motorist had shown the policeman holding what looked like a Point of Sale terminal.

He was seen taking what appeared like an Automated Teller Machine card from a man who had disembarked a motorcycle.

The woman who was filming the incident from her car was heard in the background accusing the policeman of extortion.

 The poster said that the witness was in her car when the incident happened.

 After the video went viral on the social media, many Nigerians expressed shock and dismay at the attitude of the cop, which they said represented the level of corruption in the Nigeria Police Force.

 Punch visited Olowora Street, in the Mafoluku area of Oshodi, where the incident reportedly happened on Tuesday, June 20, 2017. He established the spot of the incident from the video evidence, but no resident owned up to witnessing  the incident.

 Instead, the residents, including motorcyclists and traders, lamented that policemen from the Makinde and Akinpelu divisions were notorious for extorting money from commercial motorcyclists in the area.
