Joe said that when he and his colleague arrived at the scene of the incident, they made sure to deal with the young man before they left.
“Last week, I was returning from school when I came across a young man seriously beating up his very old mother who should be more than 70 years old. I parked, my car and the moment I started a video, they rushed at me saying I shouldn’t video to save the face of their community.
Some of my colleagues saw me and parked their cars as well. Omo, we constitute 4 the community dat day dem fear us. We dealt with the guy until their community executives came to take up the matter and were begging I should delete the video. I told them it’s noted and for that I won’t mention the name of the community but for those still beating old people, when you see this guy, ask him what he felt from us. ” He wrote.
