Nigerians have taken to their Twitter handle to react to the now viral video of police officers who intercepted a driver and demanded money from him.
According to the video which was shared by a Twitter user, Kayode Ogundamisi, the driver of the bus allegedly complained about how much they have collected from him on the same road that day and the police officers said: You’re a sharp guy looking fly. If you snatch cars and rob people, God supports it and I do too but that 4,000 naira has to be complete. We are 4 in number it must be complete.
Nigerians while reacting have lambasted the Nigeria police as an institution of shame.

There’s no hope for Nigeria with this crop of police officers. I weep for my country. Some dunce would now be blaming PMB for all the social ills.
