A mob on Wednesday set ablaze a police station in Igboukwu in the Aguata Local Government Area of Anambra State.

An eye witness who gave his name as Goddy said the police station was put on fire around 8am on Wednesday.

He said trouble began when some policemen on duty in the area killed a commercial motorcyclist on Tuesday night over extortion.

He said, “As I’m talking to you the place is in flames. The mob, made up of commercial motorcycle operators, are moving to Ekwulobia police station now to also set the station there ablaze.”


The state Police Public Relations Officer, Haruna Mohammed confirmed the incident.

He said the Commissioner of Police in the state, John Abang, had ordered the arrest of the officer who killed the commercial motorcyclist while appealing for calm.

He said,” On Tuesday about 10.30pm, there was an altercation between police operatives and motorcycle riders over some impounded motorcycles as a result of the recent restriction on movement of motorcycles beyond 9 pm in the State.

“The situation degenerated into chaos which led to an accidental discharge that hit one motorcycle rider and burning of the Igboukwu police station by irate youth.

“The Commissioner of Police, John Abang, is deeply saddened by the unfortunate incident and has ordered the detention of the policemen involved and full-scale investigation into the matter.

“The CP further appealed for calm and assures the public that justice would be done in the case and the outcome of police investigation shall be made public in due course.”

Why are police men so unprofessional in their conduct like this? The police headquarter need to start doing something serious about their unprofessional colleague to save their image.

Police should be given the right to court martial any of their colleague that kill indiscriminately and sentence such person to firing squad. We are tired of hearing news of killer police men in the name of bribery gone wrong.

It was a terrible sight today in igbo ukwu seeing tge okada man lifeless body murdered in cold blood by men of the nigerian police just because the bike man refuse to cooperates with them.

It's either the average nigerian policeman has an inherited mental problem or they are drug or alcohol addicts who lose their senses when they are on the road extorting people for money.
