A couple who assaulted policemen in Lagos on Sunday have been remanded at the Kirikiri Maximum Correctional Centre Lagos.
The couple were seen when the wife was hitting a policeman after a team stopped their car along the Iyanapaja axis of Lagos driving an unmarked Mercedes Benz.
The woman, who was also seen carrying a baby was snapped by the policemen as evidence of her assault on the officers.
“Yesterday, July 24, 2022 at about 2:30pm, police officers of Ipaja Division flagged down a Mercedes Benz car for not having number plates at Oluwaga-Ipaja. A passenger, Mrs Adebayo Ayobami aggressively and disdainfully questioned why the police officers stopped her husband and not other vehicles. She, thereafter declined to answer any question. In an attempt to get them to the station for further questioning owing to their unprovoked aggressiveness and suspicious behavior, she and her husband, Ayobami Clinton assaulted the police officers.
“The car was impounded. They were arraigned today; and the court remanded them at Kirikiri prison,” explained Benjamin Hundeyin police spokesman in Lagos.
