Head of the Police Complaint Rapid Response unit Yomi Shogunle shared a viral video of a Ghanaian police officer beating a nursing mother.
The Ghanaian Policeman assaulted the said customer of the Midland Savings and Loans in a banking hall in a video of which has since gone viral, involves Lance Corporal Godzi Frederick Amanor of the Accra Regional Police Operations Unit.
There has been public outrage after a footage of the said Police officer in uniform beating to pulp the helpless nursing mother emerged on social media platforms.
The 1:26 seconds amateur video shows the officer, who had a gun with him, hitting the woman on the head repeatedly and slapping her at a point, despite a desperate attempt by an unidentified man to separate them.
The Nigerian policeman who posted the video on his twitter page captioned it as:
"WE (@PoliceNG) WILL NEVER DO THIS IN NIGERIA ! A Ghanaian policeman beating a nursing mother in Rambo-style inside a banking hall in Accra today. Hope#EndSARS people can see the real police brutality.@PoliceNG_PCRRU"
Nigerians, however, were ready, sharing not only videos and photos of officers of the Nigeria Police Force abusing nursing mothers and pregnant women, but also a press release from the Ghana Police Service stating that the policeman in question has been arrested.
