ecclize:

i got ur point.. And is what we all pray for
My argument still remain... Staying in Nigeria or not does not take a away the fact that death cannot take it toll on anyone it so wish...
Again the deluge of heinious activicties most expecially Nigerian involve themselves account most for thier death drug peddler, cyber crime. Illegal immigrant and theft just to mention a few... A case study of this thread butress my point though we do not really know what transpired but why on earth will he try to attack an officier with a knife.
And the frivolous reasons that kill Nigerians even in Nigeria is nothing compare to developed countries...
God bless Nigeria
thanks for this sir so on point God help us

Don't wanna sound heartless.... But for him to be rushing at armed policemen with a knife, even if unarmed, he was definitely high on drugs which is normal among the black youths there, especially Nigerians....
He actually invited his own death.... Like I said, if the testimony is anything to go by o.
yes but they could have immobilised him with a stun gun or shot to unbalance him but when American cops see black ppl they get to do target practice

What's this fooool yapping about
All the SARS guys who shot pple recently have all been dismissed and still languishing in prison, yet u say we ve no system.
thank you, that's the reason why there will be no solution to our problems in Nigeria, when you are bringing better opinion, some people will sit at one Conner and frustrate what ever will lead to solution deliberately. Look at most Nigerians justifying killing of nigerian , that's why I concluded that Nigerians are mad. Most of these mad people constitutes 85%

State College cops who killed Osaze Osagie, a Nigerian student in the United States, have been cleared of all charges.

The police officers had implemented the use of force while serving a mental health warrant that resulted in the death of Osaze Osagie on March 20.

According to a the Centre County District Attorney Bernie Cantorna, the officers were in a “life-and-death situation” when they shot Osagie who was approaching them with a 5.16-inch steak knife, Onwardstate reports.

Osagie died of multiple gunshot wounds after the confrontation at his apartment on Old Boalsburg Road.

No charges will be filed against any of the officers involved in serving the warrant, and none of them were referenced by name by Cantorna.

“Given the distance between Mr. Osagie and the officers and the speed at which Mr. Osagie was moving, Mr. Osagie had ample opportunity to seriously injure and potentially kill both officers,” Cantora said in a press conference.

“The time that Officer No. 1 shot, there was no time for any alternative means to stop a potentially deadly attack by Mr. Osagie. At the time of the incident, both officers acted consistently with their training and were justified in the use of force.”

The full report detailed the course of events that led to the Osagie’s death after his father reported him missing on March 19.

According to Cantorna, the confrontation between Osagie and police at his apartment lasted about 30 seconds from the first knock on the door until he approached them with a knife and was shot.

Na only Nigerian dey die like chicken there. Why would he be rushing to a policeman with a knife like that. I would categorically said that before the police take the shot, they have already warn him not to make a move.
u dey dia? why not call d guy and ask for his own version of the story? shooting to kill is different from shooting to disable.

No place like home SARS comes to mind? Does Nigeria have a system? People get killed and nothing is being done? If you live in a country where law and order works you must respect the laws of the Land. Unlike Nigeria where there are no Laws, where people love their Pastors than they love their life's and families .Where a graduate gets 10K to rig election? Nigeria is not a home but a ZOOO

It's amazing that you guys always seem to miss the significant amount of bias against black suspects in the US. Someone is rushing towards a trained police officer with a knife, and the only option is to shoot him dead? Shot not once, not twice, but several times? Not shot on the shoulder or knees, but probably on the head or chest?

The cops are trained to keep shooting until the threat is neutralized. I guess by experience they learned that suspects remain potentially lethal after being shot to immobilize/weakened to effect an arrest..RIP to the deceased.

Also, he seemed to have mental problems which made the problem white deadly. The cop had only split seconds to make the decision. Poor guys (Both cool and the dead)

I think this is a general issue with US cops, just that blacks are more likely to get shot due to their economic circumstance.
Just saw a clip of a white girl getting shot too after trying to attack a cop with a knife.
Those US cops don't want to get physical at all. Any small threat na gunshot straight.

Chances are that in your story, the shots were to disarm and NOT kill as it is with black young men..

There's an underlying racial stereotype that belies their actions. The family of the Australian woman who got killed by an Asian policeofficer got compensation, though details of the shooting were similar to that of most police killings of black young men. The officer was also disciplined.

In my humble opinion, the difference was the victim was not a blonde haired pretty Australian female.

You live a country where a lot of innocent black people have been senselessly killed by their predominantly Caucasian police and you went on to charge at them with a knife? Sorry you killed yourself.

Try charging at an armed Nigerian policeman with an ordinary belt and see if you won't be shot dead

From the article, it appears the man might have had mental issues. It's rare to hear of oyinbo with mental issues being killed... even after oyinbo threaten, attack, abuse police - they will still find a way to disarm/disable nonlethally. However when it comes to black men holding knives, phones, wallets, or even running away, US police response is shoot to kill.

All they had to do was Tazer him, American police are Always Delighted and Happy when they are shooting at black people. In the UK that guy would have been Tazered rather.
