Unpleasant experience with uniform men


Unsplash

There is a purpose for someone to be called a guard not to talk of a security guard, and that purpose is to secure the safety of people living around the area.

And when the government put people on duty and called them the police department, it means it is their full duty to secure people in the country but what do we get from people that were supposed to secure the country? They are the ones turning the country up and down by overusing the power the government gave them.

Imagine a policeman helping an internet fraudster to get information from rich people to scam them, isn't that corruption? And yet they are claiming that they are friends with people, and bail is free meanwhile it is the other way around.


Some time ago, I got a call from one of my customers that one of her friends wants to plait hair so she gave me the address to go there, I don't have a shop yet so I do home service.

I took a bike because it's not that far and the bike will be faster. On my way going, a police van was coming from nowhere and nearly crash me and the bike man because it took the wrong way.

We almost fell and the bike man quickly stand up and challenge the driver who happens to be a police officer, but instead of the police officer apologizing for taking the wrong way he called his colleagues that was at the back of the van and about three of them came down to beat up the bike man.

I quickly near them to stop the nonsense they are doing but they threw both me and the bike man into the van and took us to the station. When we got to the station they gave us A4 paper to write a statement, and I was like what kind of statement? You guys are the ones at fault and yet you want the innocent people to write a statement.

One of them answered me, "for arguing with uniform men, for stopping the movement of an officer, and for not taking cautious on the road" That was when I realized that the police are not anybody's friend in this country. And they are the ones violating the rules of government in fact they are the one giving people hint on what to do to violate government rules and when you correct them you will still be the one at fault.

We both wrote the statement and we stood up from the detained section to leave then another one of the officers said, "Bail is not for free for people like us that try to cause commotion on the federal government road with a police officer" Then I realized that bail is never free because I always see that in a movie so I thought it was true not until I was facing it in reality.

I never had any bad experiences with some other uniform men but as for the police officers, they are worse than a rat that eats inside our house because all they care about is themselves and not the safety of the citizens.

If they truly care, why will a police officer take the wrong way on the federal government road? Knowing fully well that the lane belongs to one particular road but instead of taking a U-turn, they took the wrong way which nearly cost people's lives and still, they claim that we are wrong for asking them why making such a move.


In conclusion

Police are never anyone's friend in this country nor bail is free they don't care about the safety of citizens, all they care about is themselves and the bribe they want to get from people.

We didn't offend them so we paid for the bail because all they wanted from us was money

My sister that is true o all what police want is how to collect money from people and that is why they will arrest people without commiting any crime and collect bail from them

The police officers did not act right, to apologize will not take anything from them, or it was their plan after all, to caused confusion on the roads, then use that to take people to the station, so that they will bail themselves at the same time, what the police officers did is not good.

I thought as much too because how can a police officer take the wrong way if not that they want to arrest people for no reason just to collect money from them
