Kayode Idowu, a student of the Obafemi Awolowo University, who was seen in a viral video being brutalised by some members of the Western Nigeria Security Network, also known as Amotekun, in Osun State on May 30, shares his experience withIn the early hours of Saturday, May 30, around 3am, I and some others were returning from a bachelor’s eve because I am also a businessman and one of our colleagues was having his wedding and Friday was the eve.
On getting to the road, we spotted the Amotekun corps. They were about 15. They were on the road and were beating two people. We didn’t know the offence they committed, so it didn’t allow me to know the next best line of action, whether to get down and approach them or remain in the vehicle. As I pondered on this, one of them came to me and pointed a gun at me and ordered me to get out of the car.
I greeted him and told him I am a student of Obafemi Awolowo University. While trying to tell him where we were coming from, he slapped me. Immediately he slapped me, I came down. Meanwhile, they were shooting indiscriminately and I didn’t know what to do next. I had to start begging him. As I was pleading, one of them struck me with an axe on my left leg and I fell. They later used the axe on me repeatedly. I started pleading for my life; I said we were students and not there to fight them.
The two other persons in the car with me were on their knees. This was after they had also been beaten. So when I noticed that they shifted their attention to those they were beating before we arrived, I went to them to request my bag. One of them handed me an empty bag and another person returned my phones, but the money was not in the bag. To avoid more trouble, I didn’t complain about the missing money.Amotekun said you obstructed the personnel from going about their duties.
