BBNaija: Lucy And Kaisha Allegedly Assaulted By Policemen

Former Big Brother Naija housemates Lucy and Kaisha have recounted how they were allegedly assaulted by men of the Nigeria Police Force.

The reality TV stars went on Instagram Live as they recorded their predicament with the overzealous police officers.

According to Kaisha, one of the police officers asked to search her handbag, which she vehemently refused.

This did not go down well as one of the officers prevented the ladies from entering their car.

According to him, they had the effrontery to record them during their interrogation.

It is not clear how it ended as the live session was cut midway.

This is not the first time a celebrity will be facing the wrath of the Nigeria Police Force.

For years, it has become a recurrent situation where celebrities and ordinary citizens of the country are harassed and assaulted by police officers.

Virologists and other medical experts have warned that 100,000 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine the country is expecting may become useless, if proper arrangements are not made for their transportation and storage

The experts, including the Chief Executive Officer of the Institute of Human Virology, Nigeria, Dr. PATRICK DAKUM; a medical virologist, Dr.  OLADIPO KOLAWOLE,  and a professor of Virology at the University of Ibadan, DAVID OLALEYE,   in separate interviews advised government to ensure proper storage and transportation of the vaccine to achieve its desired result.

The Director-General of the Nigerian Institute of Medical Research, Prof BABATUNDE SALAKO, had earlier said there was no enough space to store the vaccine at the moment.

He also said another major challenge would be how to transport the vaccine at the temperature of -70 degree centigrade to rural areas.

According to him, in future Nigeria may need to buy other types of vaccines that do not require low temperature as Pfizer.
