A Nigerian Custom officer named Mr Nwaeze who heads the
Customs unit at Mosafejo Aradagun, has been accused of allegedly attacking a woman identified as Ms Tope Fadipe with
acid after an argument over money.
Sahara Reporters reports that Ms Fadipe, who served as a
salesgirl at a local food business run by Mr Nwanze's family for 3 years, was
attacked by an angry Nwaeze on Friday May 9th, after she argued with him when
he accused of her of not remitting N50,000 into the business account.
After the acid attack, the matter was reported at the
Badagry Police Station, and Mr. Nwaeze had boasted that no one could arrest
him. On Saturday, the 10th of May, one day after the incident, Mr. Nwaeze was
said to have appeared at the Police Station, and had returned shortly
afterwards to show he is above arrest.
Currently, residents say, Nwaeze belched his car radio
speakers loudly whenever driving in the street, with a carriage posting to show
that he is above the law since the May 9th incident.
It was learnt through an anonymous resident that it is part of Mr. Nwaeze's forte, to
“intimidate and oppress people with impunity,” due to his status as a Customs
Officer.
The victim, Tope Fadipe, is currently being treated for her
severe burns at the Badagry General Hospital. Witnesses and doctors say her
condition is worsening since that attack.
