A medical doctor identified as Bro Tosin on Sunday punched a police officer for calling him a robber.

Bro Tosin, who made this known on his Twitter account said the incident happened around 10:00 pm when he was rushing to the hospital for an emergency.

He said he was called for an emergency in the hospital, and since he couldn’t get a cab by that time, he decided to use a motorcycle, adding that a police officer stopped them and requested for N1,000 from the rider.

Bro Tosin said he pleaded and explained his mission to the policeman but to no avail. He said the policeman told him to identify himself which he did still the officer kept them for 30 minutes.

The medical doctor said he got angry and punched the policeman when he told his colleague that he was a robber being conveyed with a motorcycle.

He wrote,

For the first time in my life, I fearlessly took on a policeman yesterday.. I was called around 10:00 pm for an emergency in the hospital, took bike cos no cab again. Then this policeman stopped us, asked the bikeman for 1k, i pleaded and explained my mission to him.

He told me to identify myself, which i did with my ID card, he asked why they didn’t come with an ambulance to pick me if it was true, I explained to him that the only ambulance was being used to get the accident victims from crash location.

He actually wasted my time for 30mins, I started begging him. He said he wanted the 1k from the bikeman. His colleagues came to around asking what happened. The policeman said “na this bikeman dey escort this armed robber to their robbery point o”.. WTF!!! MY HEAD DON SCATTER

He appeared drunk anyway, later claimed he was only joking, but before he could say that, my head don overheat, i jumped down from the bike, pushed him with his rifle (seriously, i don’t know the kain spirit wey enta me, but i was so mad). He fought back, we exchanged few knocks

before others came to separate us.. I even thought i would be brutalised and be chilling in the station this morning, but no, they apologised on behalf of their colleague and told me to go save the lives first. I was surprised.. I’m still surprised this morning.
