In Nigeria, stop-and-search operations are common practices used by the police to maintain public safety and prevent crime. The aim is to search individuals, vehicles, and other possessions for prohibited or dangerous items such as weapons, drugs, and contraband.
In this particular incident, a security camera mounted on a power bike automatically captured the entire stop-and-search operation. The police officer carrying out the search noticed the camera and immediately called the attention of the motorcyclist to it.
The officer urged the rider to delete the recorded footage, presumably to prevent any potential incrimination. However, the rider was initially reluctant, concerned for his own safety if he deleted the footage.

Later on, he changed his stance, claiming that he would require a laptop to access the recorded footage. It is unclear whether the rider eventually handed over the footage to the officer or if any further action was taken.
Such incidents highlight the importance of transparency and accountability in law enforcement practices, and the role that technology can play in ensuring it. The use of surveillance cameras can provide valuable evidence and hold individuals accountable for their actions, but it is also important to ensure that the footage is handled ethically and responsibly.
