Edo police men murdered these man out of unprofessionalism .

Nonsense. How many rescue operations have they conducted in the North? Even after 3months of the train abduction incident.

This is really disheartening...Police are not saying the truth.The story doesn't add up.The Catholic church should authorize an autopsy to unravel which caliber of ammunition that fell the priest.
