For asking some policemen driving against traffic to turn back and use their rightful lane, Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC, personnel were attacked, threatened with a gun and the mobile phone with which one of them was recording the incident smashed.
Reacting, the Corps Marshal, FRSC, Dr. Boboye Oyeyemi, has vowed to prosecute the offending policemen, who were said to be escorting VIPs.
The incident, according to the Sector Commander, FRSC Lagos, Olusegun Ogungbemide, occurred at Ibafo, along Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Lagos.
Though the FRSC boss did not disclose the names of the VIPs, he, however, vowed that the policemen who pointed guns at the FRSC officers and smashed one of their phones, would be prosecuted for traffic violation and assault.
