A female Police Inspector, Bamidele Olorunsogo, has accused her senior colleague of assault after she refused his advances.
In a viral video, Olorunsogo said that her DCO, Ajayi Matthew, in Ode-Omu Police Divisional Headquarters assaulted her.
She also accused him of blackmailing her because she refused to be his lover as she was married.
Olorunsogo said, “What is my offence? He started beating me to the extent, he stripped me. Look at my chest, arms, everywhere, there are injuries. He’s Ajayi Matthew. He asked me out, that I should befriend him. I said no, that I’m a married woman.
“He started blackmailing me, claiming that he’s my lover, which is not true.”
