A petrol attendant, Chibuisi Okameme, was on Sunday shot dead allegedly by a policeman, Inspector Stanley Asu.

The incident occurred opposite the Greenmac Energy Limited filling station on the New Umuahia Road, Ogborhill area of the Aba North Local Government Area of Abia State.gathered that a diabetic patient was on his way to hospital for treatment when some policemen attached to the Ohuru Isimiri Police Division, who were enforcing the lockdown occasioned by the COVID-19 pandemic, intercepted his vehicle opposite the filling station.

Ndubuisi stated, “The man, who was going to hospital, is one of our regular customers, but the policemen, who were enforcing the lockdown directive of the state governor, stopped him in front of our filling station and were about taking him to the station when Okameme went to plead with the policemen to leave the man alone. As both men were pleading, one of the policemen shot Okameme.

The deceased’s brother-in-law, Dr Cyril Irobi, while condemning Asu for perpetrating the crime, demanded justice and urged the police authorities to intervene in the case. “There could have been a total breakdown of law and order if not that I intervened, because an angry mob was about to attack the station. Even the DPO could not come out, but I had to caution the youth not to take the law into their own hands. When I visited the station, I saw Inspector Asu crying in a cell and the DPO was specific that he had been cautioning him.”

Since all this why shooting and killing of innocent Nigerians, by Nigeria Police. Nothing has been done about it by FG. If not they should have stop by now. Still happening till tomorrow.

Lunatics that doesn't value life they will definitely kill more people than Corona would do

So our Police men has turned to Covid 1 9

No. of Death Recorded . Nigeria police =8 COVID 19 =5

Our SANs won't talk about this but can fault MBuhari lockdown directive to mk headline

This is true

Police at it again? They should stopped using guns

These 3 arms of government in Nigeria are the major problem of these country, last week soldiers killing youths at delta state ,these week police,everyday senate,reps ,president, governor scam,fraud,confuse

Stone him to death.... Shikena

Let every Nigerian have gun in his possession. This is the only way this uniform-madness will stop

What a shame

One crime too many with our unprofessional feu-de-jole security operatives. Eye for an eye censure will do to nip the ugly trend in the bud wonder4ulworld

May we never be victims of circumstances In Jesus Name. Amen

Mad police men everywhere.

What a country

This absurd

Necessary steps in charging the unfortunate being to court should be taken for he is not worthy to be living in the midst of reasonable fellows. In fact, he should be killed

Nigerian police should start recruiting university graduates only.

While Boko Haram is on rampage in the North and no body is trigger happy on them... Shame on Nigerian forces.

😭😭😭

WDF🥺🥺🥺 FTP this niggas are heartless

Make them jail the bastard

Too bad! The kind of police officers we have makes me wonder if actually the police is our friend.

Even quarantine couldnt stop them from killing, Unfortunate people ....They will never know peace !

Again

They will soon look for an avenue to close this case,by claiming that dey have either detained him,or dismissed him. Its just too sad that our Nigerian police are supposed to be protecting we citizens are the ones killing us.

Accidental discharge kwa?

Johniky5 Nigeria government are instrument destruction and killings.

Killer be killed. Shikena

When you try to be friends with a policeman 😭

Police do another 1? 😱😱😱😱

Drunken police officer

The Police is your friend 🤡

Not acceptable for a trained police officer to kill an innocent man, blaming it on 'accidental discharge'. Why did he not accidentally kill himself?😭

Everyday sad news

This is the tenure with the highest number of police extra judicial killings I have ever seen.

NPF will soon dismiss him. Many of them are under the influence of spell/curse

What is the value of an average Nigerian life There should be a complete overhauling of the PoliceNG and brain test for individual officials because this is gradually getting out of hands. China,Italy, UK, US, Spain has been on lock down since... Nobody killed anybody.

PoliceNG what a stupid statement from its spokesperson. You justify direct shootn at some1 begging as accidental discharge? Are police officers not trained 2use firearms n know when 2pull d trigger or is police gun not coming wit safe pin which must be unlocked b4 it can shoot?

Accidental discharge indeed! Was he armed? What kind of accident is that? This is murder! Nothing more. Nothing less.

Not to sound superstitious, but when you read stories of accidental discharge, it just feels like the officers are under a spell from past misdeeds. Paranormal stuff. Riptotheyounglad Endpolicebrutality Npf

what kind of rubbish is this trigger happy why can't him trigger happy to his own family where did we miss it in Africa

Nigeria armed forces are caused😡❌

This is sad, why are Nigerian police doing this, we need them to protect the citizens and not killing innocent people. Nigerianpoliceforce NPF Muhammadubuhari staysafe

Haa? Police are small convid-19.. Full of 85 % idiots

PoliceNG this one must not go free. JusticeForOkameme

Police everywhere for wrong headlines.....

And nothing will happen. How did we get here😥😥

AmnestyNigeria amnesty

Mad people everywhere in uniform 😡

Is this ever going to stop? 🤦
