A video making the rounds online shows the moment an armed police officer was having an exchange with a young man who challenged him for forcefully checking his phone.
The guy was reportedly heading for a photoshoot with friends when police stopped his car and demanded to see his phone.
He declined handing the device over to the police officer but the security personnel then collected it by force.
The man began to record the officer with his second phone while repeating the statement by the Inspector general of police that no officer is meant to check citizen’s phones.
The policeman then got physical with him and threatened to break the second phone.
A friend of the victim shared the video on Twitter and wrote; ”Is there anything new under the sun?.
”My friend was harassed by the police today while he was on his way for a photo shoot.”

Policeman you’re very stupid to check someone’s phone, please are you the one who bought the phone for him kwasiaman respect yourself okay… Protocol police 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨
This officers are completely unprofessional and useless. A total disgrace to the Nigeria police force, especially this stupid Opeyemi Kadira, he really behave like an animal. If not for my relationship with the police and the fact that I know the PPRO and other senior police officers very well, I may have been thinking otherwise, but I can assure you that something will be done
