While some people engaged the policemen in a discussion, the driver of the police van drove away in a panic running over the man and dragging him along the road for a few metres.
The incident generated uproar from the crowd, but the angry crowd was quickly dispersed by gunshots from the policemen.
The policemen involved in the incident have since been arrested.
A statement issued by the force Spokesman, Olumuyiwa Adejobi said the IGP has directed the erring policemen to report to the Force Headquarters Abuja on Monday for further action.
The statement called on members of the public, particularly the people of Ekpoma, to remain calm as the present leadership of the NPF will not condone such an act of unprofessionalism and illegality.
