Won't bring that promising young man back.

They should be shown to the public so others can learn. Not only to arrest because taking human life is not joke 😡😡 wicked souls

Someone said on NTA that it wasn't SARS but SACS that shot him. My people please what's the difference? SARS or SACS are they not police?

and what happened next?

He who kill another person should be as well kill too. At least his people/family will feels the pain too.

So what next? He gets locked up in a cell for a week and then transferred to Sokoto to resume work. Case closed.

God bless me with resources so that I can be able to help people

They will release them! Useless people

They may later release them or bury the case like Rivers killings

Hope they are not unknown officers.

SACS at gbagada are set of crooks too.. They need to be scorched!!!

And so what,what has happened to previous purported arrest? This is charade joor.

His picture, name, if not Nigeria police the most corrupt in the world I concur.

He should be killed same way he murdered the innocent guy 😭😭😭
