A policewoman was reported to have been assaulted and stripped naked on Oguntade Street, Shasha while trying to rescue a colleague.

The police sergeant identified as Blessing Umulede had her uniform torn and was reportedly stripped naked while attempting to rescue her female colleague, Folashade Joshua. Folashade was attacked where she went to invite a woman, Mrs. Florence Felix, to the Police Station over allegations of threat to life against her by a neighbour.

It was garnered that Mrs Florence refused to follow the female officer, Folashade, to the Police Station at Shasha Division; instead she mobilised her children and neighbours to assault her.

The other police officer, Blessing, got the information and went to rescue Folashade. When she got there, she was equally attacked and her clothes torn into pieces.

It took the intervention of another officer, Supol Bernard Odibor, who was also assaulted in the process, to mobilize police officers from Shasha Division to arrest the suspects.

Other suspects arrested apart from Mrs. Florence were Joel Felix, Chucks Felix, Joel Felix, Oyewo Olaniyi and Jubril Olaniyi.
