A very disturbing video obtained by SaharaReporters has exposed unprofessional conduct by an officer of the Nigeria Police Force, who was seen stopping and interrogating two foreign tourists travelling by car through Nigeria, subjecting them to intrusive questioning, inappropriate comments, and what appeared to be subtle intimidation.
The tourists, a young couple from England on a transcontinental road trip from the United Kingdom to South Africa, were stopped by the police officer who immediately began questioning their documentation and purpose of visit.
In the footage, the officer is heard demanding paperwork relating to the vehicle.
“I said, do you have paper for this ride? Where was the paper? Show me. Who approved this?” the officer asked.
The tourists calmly responded that their documents had been processed and approved at the Nigerian border.
“When did you arrive to this country?” the officer pressed.
“Yesterday,” the tourists replied.
