She said that the incident occurred at the Oke-Ado junction in Oyo state, following a traffic gridlock caused by the nursing mother and her husband who was driving on the wrong section of the road.   She disclosed that the policeman stepped down from the car he was in to ease traffic in the area, but the much younger woman stopped her husband from moving his car as directed.  According to the older woman, she fought with the nursing mother after she tried filling her car’s number plate while saying a different thing from what was happening at the scene. She also showed off the injury she sustained after allegedly being bitten by the new mum.   Funmi who disclosed that she is against police brutality said she decided to come forward with the “right account” of what happened at the scene of the incident to save the innocent policeman who never committed an offense.  She also pleaded with Governor Seyi Makinde and other relevant authorities to send in a team to speak with some residents of Oke-Ado to get an accurate eyewitness account of what happened.  “Idowu SARS” allegedly assaulting her and her baby. . .
