An alleged fake police officer accosted some young Nigerians with the aim of extorting them but he was met with fierce resistance.

He had stopped a vehicle in Lagos state and attempted to collect bribe from the passengers, but they decided to alight and confront him.

Though he was dressed in police outfit, they asked him to show his ID card to prove that he is an officer.

When he could not do that, the young men and women rough-handled him and pushed him aside.

He then brought out his phone as though he wanted to call for reinforcements, however, the passengers got into their vehicle and drove off.
