A man, Chike John, displayed his boxing prowess at a police station by breaking a police Inspector’s upper jaw.
John was enraged after he was invited to the station in Shasha, Lagos, Nigeria, and transferred his aggression on the Inspector.
The Inspector, Elakbe Ojo, was badly injured to the extent that he can no longer speak or eat after the incident.
Inspector Ojo was taken to a hospital where a doctor is battling to stitch his broken jaw.
The incident happened at Afonka Police  division in Shasha where Ojo serves.
The victim suffered his fate after John was invited to the station over a complaint against him by his neighbour.
Trouble started when John went to the station to know the officer that invited him.
When Ojo informed him that he was the Investigation Police Officer detailed to investigate an allegation against him, he became furious, grabbed Ojo and rained blows on his mouth.
In the process John allegedly broke Ojo’s upper jaw.
His action threw the station into confusion before other police officers mobilized and handcuffed him.
He was charged to court on a one count charge of causing grievous bodily harm on Ojo who was performing his lawful duty.
When he was arraigned, he pleaded not guilty.
The presiding Magistrate, Mr A. A. Fashola granted John bail in the sum of N100,000 with two sureties in like sum.
The court ordered John to be remanded in prison custody pending when he will perfect his bail condition.
The matter was adjourned till 11 January, 2017.
