A
Divisional Police Officer in charge of Ikenne Division of Ogun State, Patrick
Onwu, has been accused of beating up a female traffic warden, Anifat Bello, for
stopping his private car at NNPC junction, on IBB Boulevard in Ogun state
yesterday April 11th.
According
to a report by Vanguard, the traffic warden who has been been severally
honoured for her dedication to duty, stopped the private vehicle of the DPO for
beating traffic. Unknown to her, the man was her superior. Eyewitnesses say the
DPO came down immediately and pounced on her for having the audacity to stop
his vehicle despite allegedly disobeying traffic laws.
While
confirming the incident, the Ogun state Police Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa
Adejobi, said the matter has been reported to the state Commissioner of Police
who has expressed his sadness over the matter and ordered a thorough
investigation.
“The woman traffic officer has reported the
matter to the CP and he has directed that the matter be thoroughly
investigated. The CP was not happy when the woman came with a swollen face. If
the allegation is true, I am very sure the CP will know what to do.”
