“Barely 20minutes ago, the men of the Nigeria Customs were in hot pursuit of a Sienna bus allegedly carrying rice.

“The bullets didn't penetrate. Along the line, one of the bullets hit an Okada rider...

“Onlookers attempted rescuing the man but the customs officer started shooting at them. They sprayed till they exhausted their bullets and fled.

“We demand justice for the slained (sic) young man.
