On Saturday morning, a video went viral where the officer was seen inside a vehicle, asking the motorist to provide the money quickly so that he would be allowed to go, while also giving the account number where the money would be paid.

He wrote: “We will not gloss over this. He is ASP Luka Bashayi, serving at Ogudu Area Command. Meanwhile, Lagos State Police Command has commenced actions on this.”
