Popular nollywood actress lament her police harassment


 Nollywood actress, April Joju Muse has revealed that the police officer that attacked her two days ago, paid ten thousand naira to fix her car glass.
She shared a video of the man angrily breaking the glass of her car in order to pepper spray her face during the confrontation.
The Lagos state Police Force had earlier released a statement saying the officer had been dismissed, and April has now confirmed that he also paid for the glass he broke.
She wrote on Facebook, “Two reasons I’m grateful. The gas could have been a gun; the man could have been lynched. Either way, a life could have been lost. And the situation was savaged before it could be taken advantage of.
“But then I ask, if I wasn’t able to get a video clip, would it still have been in my favour going by the way the “Mopol” tried to turn the table around? So many have fallen victim and have been wasted, forgotten.
“Honestly, you my Friends made it happen. We won today, as a team, we exposed the bad eggs soiling the effort of the few good guys in the Nigerian police force that mean well. In good there is bad,and in bad there is good, but we can make the police force av a greater number of good guys. We won today through individual and collective efforts, we will keep winning. My eyes? I hope she gets better.
“To those asking, I wasn’t ‘compensated’ to ‘drop case.’ (The Mopol paid 10k naira for the glass as I had my hustle to attend to, and that’s all) I didn’t meet with the Commissioner of Police as widely speculated. I’m grateful guys.
