The policemen were said to have fled the scene without attending to the wounded midwife and motorcyclist.

Unfortunately, the woman could not recognise those who attacked her because it was dark.

When contacted, the spokesperson of the State Police Command, Tee-Leo Ikoro revealed that those who attacked the woman were vigilante men and not the police.

He explained that when the motorcyclist sighted the vigilante men at a distance, he quickly made an attempt to turn back, thereby losing control and crashing into a ditch and sustaining injuries.
