If the U.S. police shooting crisis occurred in Nigeria:

• APC would have blamed PDP for the shooting

• Fayose would have released a statement of how the APC government was killing PDP supporters

• Lai Mohammed would have said that the police involved were not real policemen

• Femi Adesina would have released a statement saying that the killed men were terrorists from Niger and Chad

• Freeze of Cool FM would have written up to five open letters

• MASSOB, IPOB would have said that it was their members that were killed

• Nigerian Army would have released a statement that those killed were members of Niger Delta Avengers (NDA)

• Police would have released a statement saying those killed were robbers/kidnappers who were on an operation

• Kemi Olunloyo would have accused top celebrities of sending the police to kill people for rituals

• Rotimi Amaechi would have said that those killed were APC members and Nyesom Wike was behind their assassinations

• Reno Omokri would have released an article on police impunity during the past and present administration

• The Senate would have asked for a summon of the Inspector General of Police

• Dr. Joe Oduamakin, Seun Kuti, Oby Ezekwesili, others would have created a new twitter hashtag

• Linda Ikeji's Blog, Laila's Blog, Vivian Gist, others would have published different stories


At the end of the day, nobody would know the exact truth and that's how police extra judicial killings would be swept off without detailed investigation.
