Spoiler alert- The men with the guns won!
There was a battle of the fittest and the most armed when the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps in Ogun State command met head on with some policemen just as they were escorting a 33,000-litre impounded petrol tanker to their office on Friday.
Kareem Olanrewaju, NSCDC spokesperson in Ogun state, narrated the encounter, saying: “As he requested to see who authorised our men to carry out such duty, they forcibly stopped the truck and dragged an NSCDC man out of the tanker.
“All explanations regarding the arrest by the NSCDC official proved abortive. When other NSCDC officials tried to come to the rescue of their colleague, they overpowered them with reinforcement from men of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad in the area, who shot sporadically in the air to scare them away.”
The NSCDC lost and surrendered to the handcuffs of the police officials but promised a comeback when the matter gets to Abuja.
