Meanwhile, there have been videos of police officers giving and receiving slaps in recent news and we are going to be talking about some of the epic slaps.
Sometime in April 2023, a video of a young man that was viciously slapped without mercy went viral. Apparently in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, a Nigerian man was captured to be given a hot slap and flogged on the highway by a police officer without any reason at all.
Following the assault, it was found out that the three police officers who had assaulted the young man were later arrested and went through a trial in court.
