Why do you think the policeman shot you? Were you being violent as you came out of your trailer?

No, I wasn’t being violent. What I noticed was that before shooting, he came to the side of my trailer and asked me how our journey had been and I said, ‘Fine, thank you’. I don’t know whether he heard me or not because I didn’t wind down the glass widow. It was a cold morning and I had to roll up the widow. After the exchange, this officer just walked away.

I think so, because there was no issue between us. If there was any issue, it should be the fact that I didn’t wind down my glass. When my glass was lowered I noticed he was angry with me.No, he didn’t ask me for any money and I didn’t give him either. The only thing I gave the officer was my vehicle papers.My prayer is that God should heal me, grant me quick recovery and for the officer , I know he did not do this to me intentionally. I want everybody to calm down.

They have been very helpful. Many of them have come to visit me, including the Commissioner of Police, Ishola Babatunde.All rights reserved.
