A twitter user has called out the Nigerian Police over allegations that they demanded N100,000 to investigate the case of a lady who was raped and infected with HIV by her rapist.
The tweep with username @AS_Ahmadu claimed the lady is a friend of his and she is currently pregnant even though she took some preventative medication after she was raped.
Ahmadu tagged the Nigerian Police stating that the case was reported in their Kadauna branch and called on people to help. In a thread of tweet, he wrote:
Woke up the sad news of my life, a friend was raped sometime last year, after we thought she had moved on, only to confirm today from her that she’s HIV+ and pregnant. All thanks to our stup!d police, where will this young lady start from? We reported to the police but as usual.
They demanded for money, like r u guys joking? This is a case of attempted murder and rape why demand for money before you swing into action, in their response they lack enough resources to just swing into action. I’m really boiling right now, her uncle eventually threw her out
This was part of the copy of the complaint letter we wrote, by God before this letter was printed out we actually paid the sum of 5k to the police, after typing we paid another 10k before the police could forward it for approval, we were invited after two days wen the letter was Approved, guess what y’all? The Police demanded for 100k before they will go fully into investigation, same Police officers demanded that if we could get them a car which they will use for a week to investigate and go after the culprits as she could identify one of them
Today she’s Pregnant and HIV+ all thanks to the stup!d Nigeria Police which couldn’t do their work without taking bribe, I am really heartbroken and disappointed that we all kept this without raising an alarm
I can still remember how a young guy who graduated from the Police Academy in Kano telling us that we can see how the bad system has affected us in one way, we all thought he’s gonna be different since he graduated from the Academy. Nigerians behold we ran from those crimin!ls
Plz i am begging in Gods name if you are in kd and can accommodate her plz kindly send a Dm please. I really can’t accommodate her at this moment, i am passing through my own phase of life as well please guys
Less i forget, in their words the 100k was demanded cuz we came through a senior police Officer, if not the money would have been more than 100k. I’m here to tell you that the police are bunch of Crimin!ls and can never be trusted….
@PoliceNG I will be waiting for you guys to come and deny this as usual, your men actually know where i stay, I have been detained illegally by your Stup!d men. Y’all need to fix up tbh
Before you come to defend the police, y’all can see that the letter was received and stamped, even the pictures of the other victims that were taken as evidence we all paid for it. Even the paper we used in writing our statement we literally paid for it,even the groundnut we paid
Am I gonna talk how few Policemen couldn’t speak English nor know how to write? They keep asking us questions in Hausa Language, same people who are paid tax payers money can’t respond nor put down a good sentence. The police need a serious Reform.”
