A Benin-based lawyer, Douglas Ogbakwa, has threatened to sue the police for assault and threat to his life at Azia Junction checkpoint along the Onitsha-Owerri road on Thursday.

According to the lawyer, when the passengers in his vehicle were about to be molested by the policemen, he introduced himself as a lawyer. He said, “I was coming from Owerri in a public transport and our vehicle and others were stopped by the rude policemen at Azia Junction. The policemen led by a man who introduced himself as second-in-command of Orlu Area Command held me down at about 09:38 hours for over one hour on the excuse that I took a photograph of their Armoured Personnel Carrier which was a ploy to seize my phone.

“The funniest thing; the rank and file were even more courteous as they behaved like officers while the officer behaved like the junior officers.
