For a crime neither the police nor Tobi Atanda himself could pinpoint, police officers from Ketu Police Station, Lagos, have confiscated his car.

Atanda, a videographer, was en route Oniru from Ketu at about 1 pm on Sunday to film a music video when the officers stopped him.

In their usual stop-and-search mode, the officers asked Atanda to park while they searched him and the three crew members in his car.

“The officers asked for my driver’s licence but I presented my learner’s certificate as I am still learning how to drive. The officers did not even ask me more than that before they began to tell me to drive to the police station,” he said.

Atanda kept quizzing the officers on why he should drive to the police station, but they ignored him and ordered everyone in the car to remain seated.

“Knowing I was about to be stuck in their web, I stepped out of the car and asked them to search me. I then began making videos of them as evidence. They refused to search me, then entered my car and drove it to their station,” he said.

The police officers beat Atanda and drove his car, with the crew members, to their station. They detained three of the crew members untill 10:30 pm when they let them go.

When FIJ contacted CSP Oke Olufunmilayo, the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ketu Police Station, he said his men found cannabis in the car. However, Atanda and his crew told FIJ that no such thing was in the car.

Olufunmilayo told our reporter that someone else could counter whatever he wrote about his men.
