Smooyis:
And many of us still think the make up of the federal police is better as it is, and see no reason for a radical change.

I know the OP will understand better. Nigeria, Lagos and all states need their own police. At worst divide Nigeria into six regions, and allow them have their own autonomous policing.

My name is Akin. It was Friday 18th Nov 2016.

He seem to express a feeling of “I don kill somebody oh”. Everything happened so fast. I kept driving forward so that we could get to a safe place ASAP. A boy on a bicycle followed us and kept asking “Bros what happened? Are you injured? What did you do to him? There is blood on your shoulder. But I was too terrified to wait. When we got to Bode Thomas, I packed close to Delta kitchen, came out to evaluate the damage. It was then that I realized it was a gun shot.

I went home, parked the car then went straight to Bode Thomas police station. After narrating my story to the officers on duty, they asked me to go report at Mushin police station. I told them I am scared of going back to that area. Up till this moment, the panic of that terrible experience still persist as I am afraid of going out.

Now I am back home thanking God I came back alive. Do I want this issue to die down? I don't think so.

I am crying for justice on behalf of myself and other Nigerians that experience police brutality each day.

How do you want them to be fish out,no names,no numbers

The police brought a lady in the morning, her two legs chopped off with a cutlass after a container fell on her legs. It took up to 15 minutes to bring out a bed to lift her from the police vehicle. A doctor I spoke with said they had to go take a bed from the maternity ward. They could not attend to any of us that came on emergency all through the night. Until around 30 minutes later when I left, she was left on the bed. No drip, no first aid, no nothing. She kept begging, “please don’t let me die” They were asking who will pay for her and she kept telling them to take her phone from her bag and call her people, that they will pay. On Sunday, I read in the news the lady died.


OP thank God for being there for you. .. You will live long enough bro. The issue of indiscriminate shooting among our officers especially the police Force has Become a mess! Nigeria is a stateless country with no good governance and the rule of law.

Coming to the case of that Young lady (Monica) , it's a pity that she died. So painful but can we question God? no! That's how she was meant to go. RIP Monica. Imagine how she was begging the doctors not to let her die. I felt really emotional after reading her last words.

My name is Akin. It was Friday 18th Nov 2016. As an IT Consultant, I had to go to Computer Village in search of some IT stuff. After I sent the device to my client via GAT, I stopped over at my friend's office; mma2.

When time came to go home, we drove through Oshodi-Mushin going to Surulere. We just drove past a popular puff-puff place in Mushin when my friend said we could buy some because we were hungry. I said it's not safe to park by the main road, maybe we could enter the Total filling station but there was traffic gridlock as some danfo buses were driving against the confused traffic. I decided to make a right turn by that Total filling station in Mushin maybe we could get a parking space off the road. On coming into another gridlock, we decided to make a U turn.

We almost finished turning, the time should be between 7:30pm and 8:00pm, when two mobile police officers came out of nowhere. Something like RRS boldly written on their black top. One came to my side (driver side) shouting move! move!! pointing his gun at me. I bent my head away from the gun signaling with my hand up in the air that we are trying to make a U turn. Before I could say jack, the man shot right at me in close range. The officer looks drunk. I noticed he took like one step backward and aimed his gun properly at me. He made some kind of “hiss” sound with anger, expressing something like “I will kill this one”. The bullet shattered my driver side glass, brush the top side of my seat close to the head rest, and went through the rear right passenger door, leaving a bullet hole and shattering the glass.
All I heard was a loud bang, my left ear deafened and a cold feeling on my left shoulder like blood flow.

I scampered like a terrified rat, climbing every obstacle just to get away from this danger. I noticed the officer stood still with the gun pointing downward and his partner on the passenger side looking in awe after the shot. He seem to express a feeling of “I don kill somebody oh”. Everything happened so fast. I kept driving forward so that we could get to a safe place ASAP. A boy on a bicycle followed us and kept asking “Bros what happened? Are you injured? What did you do to him? There is blood on your shoulder. But I was too terrified to wait. When we got to Bode Thomas, I packed close to Delta kitchen, came out to evaluate the damage.

I told them I am scared of going back to that area. Up till this moment, the panic of that terrible experience still persist as I am afraid of going out.

Because of the bleeding, I had to go for medical examination to ascertain if it was life threatening. From Jalupon to Randle then transferred to LUTH emergency. I ended up sitting outside in the cold and mosquito from around 10:00pm till 8:00am the following morning. Though the doctors display passion with their job, it seems to be written all over their faces that they are choking of resources and they kept shouting there is no bed to attend to anyone.

The police brought a lady in the morning, her two legs chopped off with a cutlass after a container fell on her legs. It took up to 15 minutes to bring out a bed to lift her from the police vehicle. A doctor I spoke with said they had to go take a bed from the maternity ward. They could not attend to any of us that came on emergency all through the night.

She kept begging, “please don’t let me die” They were asking who will pay for her and she kept telling them to take her phone from her bag and call her people, that they will pay. On Sunday, I read in the news the lady died.

Reading the body language of the doctors and the way events were unfolding, I had to go to another hospital where I was eventually treated. The x-ray result showed many tiny opaque objects under the skin. They were able to remove some of the metal and glass object.

Now I am back home thanking God I came back alive. Do I want this issue to die down? I don't think so.

I am using this opportunity to call on the Federal government, the Lagos State government, the IG of Police, the commissioner of police, the DPO in command Mushin area and all stake holders to plead my cause and fish out the perpetrator of this evil attempt on an innocent life. I am crying for justice on behalf of myself and other Nigerians that experience police brutality each day.

I will also add this word of advice, “Righteousness exalts a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people” Prov 14:34.
We cannot continue to shed innocent blood and expect God to exalt our nation. The primary responsibility of any government is security of lives and properties and police is the arm of government whose sole responsibility is to enforce the law and not break it nor plunge the nation into thick darkness of God’s anger by shedding innocent blood.

I am also calling on the Federal government and the IG of Police to put in place appropriate mechanism to forestall recurrence of this sought of act by our men in uniform. Many Nigerians lose their life each day to indiscriminate shooting and thirst for blood by some of our officers.
I have attached some pictures with this letter.

Please pass on this message on until it gets to the Inspector General of Police (IDRIS KPOTUN IBRAHIM), the Commissioner of Police Lagos State (Fatai Owoseni) and the President.

OMG,you are so lucky and you need to do a thanksgiving,back to the Nigerian police,there are a lot of cases of indiscriminate shooting of citizens by trigger happy and drunk policemen,i think its high time they ig and the fg look into it,i think alcohol test must be carried out on any policeman before giving them riffle and any policeman caught drinking should be dealt with

OP thank God for being there for you. .. You will live long enough bro. The issue of indiscriminate shooting among our officers especially the police Force has Become a mess! Nigeria is a stateless country with no good governance and the rule of law.

Coming to the case of that Young lady (Monica) , it's a pity that she died. So painful but can we question God? no! That's how she was meant to go. RIP Monica. Imagine how she was begging the doctors not to let her die. I felt really emotional after reading her last words.

Words of advice. We must learn not to argue with these officers no matter how guiltless we may appear. Always obey their order to avoid accidental discharge as a result of anger or drukness. Thank God for your life.

OldBeer:
Pls if you don't know what to say, keep silent.
Nobody is meant to die in such a horrific manner.
She died because of negligence and ignorance.
If it had happened in the US or other developed countries, she would still be alive today.
I am a christian but lets not leave everything to God without striving to do better.
It reeks of laziness and stupîdity and that is not what God stands for.

Thank God it was cartridge bullet that was used.
These are boko harams in govt approved uniform.
Gun men shall mete out similar attack on him.

Daboomb:


With due respect Sir, you are missing the point!

I will attribute your problem to what is called in Physics/Optic, "Lateral Inversion".
It occurs when you look at things through a mirror or through the lens of a Camera and the IMAGE (what you are seeing) is said to be "Laterally Inverted"!

Look at the picture properly again:
You will see that since we drive on the left, the Steering is on the left side, he will be shot on the left shoulder (since he is facing the front windscreen).
The Bullet, which will pierce/graze his shoulder at his backside (he was leaning forward a bit, to protect his head while the Police killer is shooting from an angle/line of sight that is going from front-to-back) will go into his chair (as shown) and exit on the back right door (straight line).

So, the guy is right, you are the one who is getting confused.

I am happy for the Op! May God continue to protect you.

These Police men are just animals, and they get drunk while on duty, brandishing an AK47 Assault Rifle!

How do you allow a drunken illiterate to hold a weapon in Public?
When will our Police I.G ban Police from drinking while on duty?
How many people need to be murdered in cold blood, before these animals in Uniform are taken off the streets?

It should be an automatic sack, if a Policeman is breathalysed while on duty and found to be DRUNK.

I'm sorry about this bro.
But I think your pictorial evidence and your statement doesn't fit.
You said he came to the drivers side asking you to move, tnen pointing a gun at you which he later shot at you from close range.
But from the pictures I'm seeing shows bullet hole at the right back seat. Again, the injury you sustained is on your left shoulder, which shouldn't be , considering the position of the bullet hole on the headrest and the supposed position of your shoulder.
I really don't understand and I'm surprised nobody pointed this out
