VIDEO: Police officer caught struggling with moving vehicle in Delta
A viral video circulating on social media has captured a police officer hanging onto the driver's door of a moving vehicle on a highway in Ughelli, Delta State.
The situation is still unclear, as the Delta State Police Command has yet to issue a statement concerning the incident.
As seen in the video, the vehicle had more than one occupant, with one of them telling the officer repeatedly in the pidgin vernacular, "Na you go kill yourself", which means "You will kill yourself", and the policeman who clung on to the vehicle responded saying "I go kill you nothing go happen."
Some of the vehicle occupants were seen with their phones recording the whole scenario as they continued to lament in the same vernacular, saying, "We no do am anything," meaning, "We didn't do him anything."
