I don't know what the people of this country want.
ReplyDeleteThis is great news, hope they abide with it.
ReplyDeleteThis is good news.
ReplyDeleteGood news
ReplyDeleteGood news
ReplyDeleteVery good move Mr. IGP. 👍
ReplyDeleteThey were treating this particular issue in one radio station just recently. Great news if only the Nigerian police will comply, because bail is free but Pinky still pay 70k.
ReplyDeleteThe problem is not with the enforcement, it's with the burectacy. There's a standing law backing and insurance backing victims of hit and run , I think by extension victims of gun shot(of the gun shot I'm not too certain)
ReplyDeleteIt even awards compensation for the victim after free treatment, the issue is that most hospital including government owned ones are finding it difficult to recoup their money back from the insurance and other government agencies that supposed to authorise it.
Hmm.
