Soldiers beat up voter for taking pictures

There was pandemonium at Polling Unit 046, Sam Sonibare Street, Surulere, Lagos, as a team of soldiers beat up a youth for taking their pictures.

It was learnt that the soldiers, about 25 in number, were in a big truck, patrolling the area when the youth decided to take their pictures.

A brother of the victim, who identified himself only as Ade, said, “We were undergoing the accreditation exercise by the polling unit when about 25 soldiers in a truck drove by. My brother brought out his phone to take pictures but when the soldiers saw him, they alighted from their vehicles and descended on him.

“They beat him up and kicked him repeatedly. They then seized the phone and drove off.”
