A lot of the times, some persons tend to use the “police authorities” as their personal militants. In other words, they may set a process in motion of harassing their adversaries using police officers just on trump top petitions.
I’ve had various experiences with such in times past and in one of those cases, it pertained to a client, whose property was under construction. Then some other persons who had interest in the same property practically shut down the property for over two years.
Guess what? We went to court and we got judgment against them for even hindering my client’s rights to work to engage in an economic activity. The court saw reason with us and gave us judgment. In fact, in that case, the Inspector General of the Nigerian Police Force was a party, the Assistant Inspector General of Police Zone 2 was a party and even the person who instigated the police was also a party.
In conclusion, it’s very important to know how to assert your rights and protect yourself against police harassment in the country.
