A US-based Nigerian man, who returned to Lagos for the Christmas holiday, shared a traumatising video purportedly showing police officers brutalizing him and his friends.

In the video, which wasn’t very clear since it happened at night, Taylor and his friends can be heard arguing with men believed to be police officers.

Taylor said he and his friends were on their way back from the beach last night, January 8, when the officers stopped and asked to search their car. He said they were accused of being Yahoo boys and were rough handled.

Taylor said they were “beaten”, treated like “criminals” and were bleeding by the time the officers were done with them.

In the video, Taylor and his friends are seen asking the officers what they had done but the officers didn’t give a reason, instead, they turned violent when they realized they were being filmed.

They are heard struggling for the phone and asking that the video be deleted, but Taylor told them it was a live stream.

Sharing the video to Instagram, Taylor said:

Change! Change! Change!
Complete change in every sector is what is needed in Nigeria.

What seemed like perfect vacation almost ended in tragedy last night.
Heading home last night after a fun last night was ruined by one of my biggest fears as a black man; Police brutality.
On Monday 6th of January 2020 morning, at about 2am, I was heading home from Moist beach after a fun night out with a couple of my friends @gabrielanthonys @drewbaba @tissiekholors . Some policemen stopped our car abruptly without telling us what our offense was.
They rushed to the back seat and started dragging us out of the vehicle. One of the them started saying “they are yahoo boys, take their phones”. Scared, worried & frightened as I was, I did the smart thing of bringing out my phone to record the bullying and harassment from the men in uniform.
I was dragged on the floor, hit on the back and even started bleeding from my hands and other parts of my body that were bruised.
In that moment I wondered what I had done wrong to be treated like a criminal and fearful thoughts ran through me like a wave of electricity . One of the police officers even fired his gun.
What if it had hit me?
What if it had landed on any of my friends?
How would have my family and our loved ones cope with the trauma?

A fun filled vacation turned to a bloody nightmare.
I had to beg strangers passing by to intervene but you trust Nigerian people to drive off as far it doesn’t concern them but it definitely does and it’s us to each and everyone of us to say something stand up for our rights.
I’m just glad I left the situation with my life and just an injury on my hand and some bruises.I saw blood. My shirt was stained but I am glad my life and my friends weren’t taken away. I was very traumatized.
I hear and see it happen a lot online but on this day I wasn’t just a spectator, I was the actor in the tragic movie of hostility.

I took some days off social media to recuperate and heal.
Thank you to everyone who reached out.
Thank you for your calls, texts and messages and giving me information on what I should do next time in case it happens again.
To anyone going to Lagos,Nigeria PLEASE BE CAREFUL

Nigerian Political Analyst, Olufolabi Olushola has seemingly reacted to the trending video of a woman assaulting her husband’s side chick and from what can be deduced from his tweet, he’s not in support of the behavior.

Taking to twitter, he wrote ;

IF you as my wife meet my side chick in a mall and you choose to disrespect me by making a show of it, if the babe respect’s me and keeps her calm. I am upgrading her to wife, end of story…..

Social media users have dug up a throwback video of the alleged side chic who was embarrassed yesterday at Ikeja City Mall by her lover’s wife has gotten a lot of people talking.

In the video, the young lady can be seen advising her followers on having oral s*x with their partners or the husband of someone else.

She also advised men on how to keep themselves clean, so their partners don’t get infected during the act.

Watch video below ;

Rev. Ronald Kalende, a priest at Mwereerwe Church of Uganda has been suspended after he admitted to fathering a child with a 23-year-old church choir pianist identified as Perusi Serena Nabirye.

Rev. Kalende is scheduled to marry another woman, the daughter of a Reverend, next week Friday.

It is alleged that apart from Rev. Ronald Kalende, the young woman had an intimate relationship with another priest, Rev Julius Matovu of Jjungo.

What started as a rumor that two priests were sleeping with one woman later became a reality when the lady became pregnant.

Last month, Nabirye gave birth and claimed that Rev. Kalende is the father of her new born baby.

During an interview with Bukedde newspaper on Monday, she said with the guidance of Namirembe Diocese Bishop Rt Rev Wilberforce Kityo Luwalira they were to conduct a DNA test after giving birth to ascertain the biological father of the new born but the men of God seem to be reluctant.

She added that following the incident, Nabirye who used to stay at Archdeacon Ven Emmanuel Ssewanyana’s place in Kazo was sent packing. Currently, Nabirye stays at a friend’s place in Kyebando.

“The Bishop had ordered Canon Ssewanyana to give me Shs500,000 every month for upkeep but he gave me only Shs300,000 before kicking me out of his place,” she told the local daily.

The suspended priests had earlier denied fathering the child with Nabirye.

Rev Kalende said he has nothing to do with Nabirye and that it’s Rev Matovu who knows very well the real father of Nabirye’s new born baby girl.

Speaking out before the paternity test, Rev Kalende said that Nabirye is being used by Rev Matovu to tarnish his name.

“Rev Matovu knows the real father of Nabirye’s baby. Nabirye should bring out evidence that I’m the father of her baby. She should look for the father of her baby. I have never slept with her.”

However, Rev Matovu said that when Nabirye became pregnant, she told him that it was Rev Kalende who is responsible.

”Both Kalende and Nabirye are adults; they should sort out their issues amicably. They should go for a DNA,” he said.
