When i
blogged couples of weeks back that our police in Nigeria are just killing for
fun, i was attacked by my friends in Nigeria some mailed me directly while
others made a bad comments on the post, but now ,how can you defend this one ?
When a subordinate allegedly shot his boss over a girl friend issue ?
A
police corporal named Andrawusu Bitrus, attached to Geshua Division of the Yobe
State, on Friday, at about 9.00 a.m, shot an Assistant Superintendent of
Police, Soji Elegbede, to death over a feud involving the corporal and his
girlfriend.
According to police source, the corporal, whose name was given
as Andrawusu Bitrus, reportedly fired 10 rounds from his AK 47 rifle
while the deceased stood in the charge room of the division, killing him
instantly.
It was
gathered that the corporal had been having issues with his lover, who he was
having an affair with after abandoning his wife with six children.
The girlfriend was reported to have been visiting the police
station where Bitrus worked and the Divisional Police Officer had tried
intervening in the matter.
When the lady visited again on Friday, the DPO was reportedly on
casual leave and ASP Elegbede, as the most senior officer and the
administrative officer, advised the lovers to try and settle their differences
amicably at home.
As the woman made to leave with the driver who brought her,
Corporal Bitrus allegedly corked his gun and ordered the duo to freeze.
The deceased was said to have gone to the charge room where he
gave the order that the corporal be defaulted for corking his gun at civilians.
Bitrus reportedly went to him in the charge room and shot and
killed him.
The ASP said to be an indigene of Abeokuta, Ogun
State, joined the Nigeria police about two years ago,and just got married about
6months ago. It was gathered that the remains of the officer have been
deposited in the morgue at the Federal Medical Centre, Nguru.
