Police Corporal Beaten To Coma By Soldiers In Bauchi

Another unsavory story of the "show of power" by our security operatives.
This time in Bauchi State, a police Corporal, Abbas Haladu was said to have met the soldiers who barricaded the entrance leading to the Emir's palace near the Roundabout at about 7am on Wednesday when they descended on him, beating him mercilessly.
The attack left the corporal with a broken hand.
According to sources, the soldiers had barricaded the road at 8pm on Tuesday as a security measure to forestall the breakdown of law and order. It was learnt that Corporal Haladu who was in mufti, was stopped from going to the Emir's palace where he was posted to commence duty for the day.
Trouble started for the corporal when he was asked by the soldiers to identify himself which he did, but the soldiers on duty who were already reportedly angry insisted that he would not pass through the barricade to the Emir's palace.

Am wondering what is going on with our security men and their unnecessary battle of wits.
