The motorist was in his car with his black Cane Corso dog when he approached the checkpoint at Ogoni, River state. As the officer tried to stop the car, apparently for a search, the dog launched at him.
Before the policeman could begin questioning the motorist, his dog barked ferociously at the officer, making him nervous.
The frightened officer quickly started pleading with the man in a friendly manner, stressing that they are together and that there was no need for aggression.
”E don reach like that? we are together,” he said while the dog continued barking.
The pet’s owner stopped it from attacking the policeman as it appeared ready to jump out of the car.
He was eventually permitted to drive off without being searched or asked to present his car documents.
