In accordance with eyewitness report, the soldiers have been driving in an exclusive car, with a Lagos State vehicle plate number BZ288 KTU, came down from their car and pummelled the civilian for allegedly driving wrongly. One Malam Garba, who was at the scene, told journalist that “the civilian was just riding his motorcycle once the soldiers stopped their car in the center of the road, went right to the man and started beating him. They accused the man of wrong riding.”
The civilian who was riding on a motorcycle was beaten into a pulp by the soldiers and this attracted numerous onlookers.
The soldiers tried driving away, leaving the man severely battered but a police officer who'd witnessed the incident, stopped them.
After the assault, the soldiers were said to have tried to drive a vehicle away but were stopped with a police officer who'd witnessed the severe beating.
It was gathered that the policeman threatened to fire his rifle at the soldiers when they tried to move. This further attracted the attention of other security agents who stumbled on the aid of the motorcyclist. The quick intervention of soldiers from the 1 Division of the Nigeria Army brought the situation under control. The soldiers later took the assault victim to the 44 Army Reference Hospital for medical treatment.
