A man has called out Vehicle Inspection Officers (VIO) in Asaba, Delta State, over the condition of their official vehicle, accusing them of stopping motorists for vehicle defects despite allegedly having similar faults.
In a video posted on X on Monday by DammieDammie, the man is seen drawing attention to the officers’ vehicle, pointing out its worn-out tyres and missing wheel nuts.“Look at them, they don’t have tyres. Their tyre is already worn out. No bolt here, and they are stopping people on the road that they don’t have bolt,” he said.
He further questioned why the officers were stopping motorists over missing wheel nuts when their own vehicle allegedly had similar defects.
The video also appears to show that the officers’ vehicle has a missing or defective front headlight, raising further questions about its roadworthiness.
Sharing the footage, DammieDammie wrote, “VIO officers vehicle tyres have work out badly, some bolts are also missing in their tyres and yet they’re stopping people on the road for bad tyres.”
