Some policemen on duty during the Eid-el Kabir have beaten up a Nigerian Army Captain while his seven months pregnant wife was similarly manhandled and allegedly called her a ‘prostitute.’
The incident which caused panic and anger happened at the popular Gidan Mai Roundabout on Sunday at about 7 pm, throwing the entire area into confusion. A relative of the victims said the Captain who was in mufti and in company with his wife in his car reached the police checkpoint and was ordered by the policemen on duty to open his boot for checking just like other motorists. The relative said further that the captain who was stopped by the policemen and demanded for his vehicle particulars tried to explain to them that he was an officer in the Nigeria army.
“The next thing he saw was several policemen descended on him and started beating him. It was later that the police learnt that he was a senior army officer,” he said.
However, another eye witness who was driving from GRA at the time of the incident told our correspondent that the policemen were provoked because the wife was not pleased with the way her husband was being mishandled. “I think the policemen were not in their best elements because the man was beaten out of sheer provocation and even when he tried to identify himself.
They were insulting his wife, who I believe they did not know was his wife. I later learnt she was pregnant. What annoyed many people was when the wife was abused and even rough handled as she tried to stop them, from beating her husband.”

the army captain should have opened his booth. what's the big deal in complying. he can as well be a boko haram arms supplier. after all the guns and bomb used by boko haram is gotten from the army. na him do himself.

who says that boko haram's arms are gotten from the Army if u don't know what to say just keep ya mouth shut
so tell me, where do they get their bombs and grenade from? perhaps from your back yard. or you sell their weapons to them? or they have oil pipes that run at their back yard the steal oil from, sell it and buy guns with it. that army captain knows that the bombs and grenades those boys use has been traced to their armory. he should blame himself.
