Gov Soludo’s Agunechemba Operatives Brutalize Keke Rider For Refusing To Give N200 Bribe (Video) – SIXT-MEDIA LANE
Anambra security agency, Agunechemba has come under criticisms, following the video of a keke rider being brutalized by its operatives in Awka.
According to a video posted by a Facebook user, Amaka Nwada Ebenebe, the incident happened at Y Junction, Okpuno, because the rider refused to part with N200 to the operatives as a bribe.
She said: “Because this boy did not give them 200 naira that’s why they are beating him like this.
“This is a country where security is now hurting the masses because of peanuts. So bad, my eye saw hell today. It is a pity we had to find ourselves in this kind of situation. May God help us.”
She insisted she was present when the incident happened, and was even captured in the video as she tried to plead with the operatives to forgive the rider.
This would not be the first time Agunechemba is caught in the web of brutalization of citizens.
Last year, they came under intense criticism for brutalizing a female corps member, to the point of stripping her naked, claiming they were looking for Yahoo boys in the corpers lodge.
Meanwhile, the spokesperson for the state security agency, Mr Nweke Nweke, when contacted, stated that the video was old and posted to create mischief.
He said: “That is an old video. We have even reacted to it before. I remember making a press release about it then, and those men you see in the video were sanctioned then.”
Checks by SIXT-MEDIA LANE, however, showed that the video was posted on Sunday morning by Amaka, who claimed to have witnessed the incident.
