Oyo Police Arrest Cop an A Viral Video Demanding Money From Foreign Biker

The Oyo State Police Command announced that it had captured the police officers seen in a now-viral video extorting money from a Dutch woman riding a motorcycle when she was on tour in Nigeria.

The command announced on Thursday that the operatives will be subject to disciplinary measures in a post on X.

 “Viral video portraying the regrettable misconduct of certain policemen along Moniya-Iseyin Road has been accessed. All those involved have been apprehended for immediate disciplinary actions. Supervision will be increased. Please report any misconduct to Xsquad on +2348023535470,” the post read.

The rider was stopped by the police in the footage, and they asked her where she was going and from where.

Surprising the two cops, the Dutch said that she was from the Netherlands and was headed to Abuja.

As they continued speaking in pidgin with the rider, the officers remarked: “Wetin you bring come? Wetin you won give me. O yah give me something nah.”

The tourist appeared not to comprehend the officers’ message until they clearly said, “Give me money, money,” to which she asked, “Why?”

The 1:26-minute video drew reactions from Nigerians who felt humiliated by the policemen’s actions.
