A man seen in a viral video beating up an older cab driver after a disagreement over luggage has been arrested.
The video shows the older cab driver bleeding from the mouth as the two of them struggle.
After they are separated, the older man tries to get closer to the man saying he is still holding his car key. At that point the younger man lands the cab man a vicious blow on the face, sending him crashing to the ground.
The younger man then walks into his house.
Prince Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the spokesperson for the Nigerian Police Force, saw the video and asked the victim to reach out to him so that he could get justice.
Trouble started when the younger man ordered a ride and tried to put his luggage inside the car.
The driver reportedly objected, insisting that the luggage should be in the boot.
The disagreement escalated quickly into the younger man assaulting the older man.
Witnesses said the younger man was aggressive and unyielding apparently because he was well connected.
The initial police summoned to the scene formed a barrier in front of his house, not allowing anyone to get close.
The X user, Onomen Entertainment, who posted the incident on the platform later returned to announce that the young man had finally been arrested.
