I lived most of my life in Lagos, Nigeria.
I have seen and had close relatives manhandled and harrassed by men in Uniform.
I have stood on the sidelines long enough.
Piece From iReport on CNN
On the third of november 2008 on Muhri Okunola Street, victoria Island Lagos, the traffic was chaotic. A young lady (Uzoma Okere) driving home from work didn't move her vehicle out of the way of a millitary convoy on time, resulting severe beatings by armed Nigerian Navy men. The convoy consisted of Rear Admiral Harry Arogundade's personal Navy saloon car and his pilot truck, consisting of 6 armed bodyguards. The body guards in the process physically beat up several Price WaterHouse Coopers staff and destroyed cameras that were filming the event as it unfolded. The video clip was recorded from the PricewaterHouseCoopers office on a personal camera. .
Knowing this is nto the first time this has happened http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-134234 but unable to sit back and just complain about the majority of animals that were our national uniform.
We cry out - we want justice for Uzoma and all those that haev suffered in the hands of uniformed men.
Enough is Enough!
