A soldier identified as Omoh F. has been arrested for assaulting a lady in Lagos.
The incident occurred at an ATM gallery of the United Bank for Africa (UBA) in Oshodi on Monday.
He had jumped queue and after a lady complained, Omoh hit her with his belt.
The military man has been detained and an investigation has commenced.
The victim narrated her ordeal via her Twitter handle, @vels20.
“I was just assaulted by an army official this morning, the 26/10/2020 at the ATM stand of UBA at their Oshodi branch…I’m also scared of writing this because he threatened me. My life is your hands Nigerians. I was in the ATM queue and this army official asked me to move so he could pass. I asked him if he was in the queue that there is a queue, he asked me to move.
“I moved and continued asking him if he was in the queue. He flared up as you will see in the video below, and before I knew what happened he brought out his belt and hit me. I never insulted him. He threatened to make me bleed in my own country because I asked if he was in the queue. I want justice”, she tweeted.
Local and international groups have repeatedly accused the Nigeria military of assault on civilians.
The ATM attack happened amid the agitation against police brutality.
