The uniformed policeman had allegedly drunk himself to stupor.
Several people gathered around him, filming and taking pictures of the cop.
“He has taken too much drink (alcohol) and he has fallen into a gutter. And he is on duty. Look at what Buhari has caused for us; this doesn’t make sense,” a man said in the video.
At a point, some people in the crowd suggested lifting up the policeman, while others objected.
One of the commenters on the post on Instagram, @iam_dazzer wrote, “This is crazy. That’s what we call bad habit. He has been destroyed by his alcoholism. He is a disgrace to the police.”
Another reader, @tokunbo_asap, however, had a different opinion. “What if he is suffering from a neurological disorder, especially seizures?
“He might even have a cardiovascular problem that led to a sudden collapse. Transient ischemic attack (stroke). Why not help him or seek help? They would rather make videos. Pathetic to say the least,” he wrote.
A metaphor of Nigeria. Failed state
ReplyDeleteStupid Nigerians how are u sure the man is drunk? Any confirmation? Just an assumption. Instead of helping him you are making jest of him.
ReplyDeletePlease do not think that you are sounding smart. People know when a person is drunk. Your attempt to be smart when you are not has failed
DeleteWow. You're certainly sounding like an empty barrel.
DeleteHave you seen anywhere on planet earth where a police officer is permitted to disrespect the uniform in d way and manner dis imbecile has done. Police officers are supposed to prevent drunkards from been a nuisance to society rather than being a nuisance themselves.
If I were there, I would have removed d uniform and allow him continue his sleep. That way he is just another drunk fool.
Nigeria pple with a big problem how sure he drunk alchol instead of them to help him. Taking picture and video record is there help.
DeleteEverything wrong is buhari abi????
ReplyDeleteI wonder Ooo! I tire for them walahi! Even if rain fall spoil person house, na Buhari. Abeg make Una allow the man, na beg I beg Una!
DeleteSome Nigerians are so little-minded! The fact that the man is on his uniform is enough reason for him to be protected and not disgraced further. We should all be aware that the uniform he is wearing is a Nigerian symbol which should never be ridiculed. The best thing to have done is to help him out of the street and contact the nearest police station if actually he's drunk or the nearest hospital if it's something else.
ReplyDeleteYou simply cannot ridicule your father like that even if he's drunk! You cover him up!
He's not a digrace to NPF alone but a big disgrace to all alchohol takers also. Wine is a mocker.
ReplyDeleteWhere are his colleagues on duty with him????
ReplyDeleteHEY GUYS WHAT'S GWAN? WHERE WAS THAT PICTURE TAKEN? WHICH TOWN? IS THE POLICEMAN DEAD OR JUST DRUNK AND SLEEPING? WAS THE PICTURE SIMULATED? HOW COME ALL THE NOISE MADE BY THOSE PEOPLE DID NOT WAKE HIM? QUESTIONS UPON QUESTIONS? WHY DIDN'T THEY VIDEO HIS NAME AND NUMBER? THIS WILL OPEN HIS IDENTITY FOR ALL TO SEE THE REAL BAD EGGS SPOILING THE POLICE IMAGE. Jay 2, Abuja
