POLICEMAN MURDERS FATHER IN FRONT OF 7 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER
Azeez Omotosho, a father of three was shot dead by a policeman on Saturday in front of his seven year old daughter, Aliya. This incidence took place in front of their home at Oyenguwa street, Sogunle area of Lagos state. He was allegedly shot twice. The Primary 2 pupil spoke to Punch Metro where she recounted her experience thus, “My daddy, my mummy and we the children, were inside the car. When we got to the entrance of our house, my daddy saw policemen flagging down his friend’s car. He parked and wanted to help his friend but my mummy
said he should not go. My daddy left us and went to see the policemen while we went into the house. After sometime, we heard gunshots so we came outside. My daddy was on the floor. The policeman then shot my daddy again before he died.” His widow, Sherifat, described the incidence as an unbelievable nightmare as she lamented about who will take care of her little children.
The policeman, identified as Corporal Emejo Gabriel was reportedly disarmed and arrested before being transferred to Area F Police Command, Ikeja.
* It is such a pity that incidences like this are on a steady increase in Nigeria rather than the opposite.
