The incident occurred on Tuesday evening along Federal Polytechnic, Ado/Ijan Road.

A policeman identified as Supol Ayeni has been crushed to death by a patrol van belonging to the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) unit of the Ekiti State Police Command.

The incident occurred on Tuesday evening along Federal Polytechnic, Ado/Ijan Road.

SaharaReporters gathered that RRS operatives who drove recklessly were chasing suspected fraudsters, otherwise known as Yahoo boys when they hit their colleague who was on a motorcycle.

It was learnt that Supol Ayeni who was attached to Odo Ado police state died on the spot.

“He actually came home to eat, his wife has a shop around Aba Ebira in the polytechnic community. There is this bad spot along the road, beside the silo, so the deceased came to his wife’s shop up eat, he came with one of his friends motorcycle. He was working at Odo Ado which is not that far from here.


“The RRS operatives were in two hilux vehicles chasing a Benz. I don’t know where they were chasing the guys from, as they were about to overtake the Benz, the deceased who is popularly known as Baba Ada was coming from the other side and one of the vehicles hit him. He died immediately,” a source told SaharaReporters.

A colleague of the deceased who spoke to SaharaReporters confirmed the incident.

He added that the RRS operatives involved have been identified and detained at the state headquarters.

“Yes, Supol Ayeni is dead, He was hit by RRS van. I'm still confused my brother, this was someone I saw earlier today.”

Calls put across to Ekiti Police Command spokesperson, Sunday Abutu by SaharaReporters were not answered nor returned.

May God help me as I chuckled on seeing this topic seeing they lost their very own instead of their normal end game with citizens.

Well, na the body of the yahoo boys go hear am shaaa. How them take know say nah G boys? a case of certified thief against uncertified thieves.


No RIP from me to any police man them no deserve peace, jam them you go know.

The comment above me though

Those two policemen should be given life imprisonment.

Greedy flies follow corpse to. the grave.

He would have still be alive if normal police arrest procedures were followed by him.

good riddance to bad rubbish. na dem dem so i've no fvck to give.

Why would you chase people who are not terrorists, bandits or insurgents in such manner. They may not even be yahoo boys - maybe young upwardly mobile Nigerians.

It's a family issue, nothing to worry about

No na.

The dead policeman had nothing to do with the chase...

He was only riding back to his Post.

*This country just get as e be

The type of stories coming up these days leaves one in a dazzled State , police van kills police man. Thank God innocent people were spared.

The Nigerian police is cursed

Believe Sowore online news at your own risk.

Mumu people, chikini investigation they won’t do. Snap the vehicle picture and go ahead to the vehicle registry to get the owner info. Instead of recklessness

If not that the sanctity of life is sacrosanct, I would have said good for him.

Condolences to the family he left behind.

If you are stopped by the police and you refuse to stop, if a car chase ensues any damage should revert to the people being chased as they created the situation for it to happen. Police stops you, stop.

This crazy idea of running only makes you a criminal and those suspects should be tried for vehicular manslaughter

Olokpa wahala for this country beike big nyanch--"no matter what,big nyanch can never finish"

The same olokpa,if you call them to report a criminal activity to them,them go ask you for mobilization money,fuel money,and even ask you wetin your street local vigilante dey do

Haa. This is so pathetic. May God continue to protect us all.

I'm this 2022 we are about to enter, anybody planning evil for us will never escape evil

Any man or woman that says our blessing will not locate will only have evil to contend with

Thank God it wasn't an innocent bystander.
I hope the Yahoo boyz escape o. Coz na them go pay for the death of the police officer.

E be things

No case

Nothing we no go hear for Nigeria�������

They have killed their own, and reality dawns on them. They wanted to overtake dangerously and end up killing someone

This is not funny at all....how can Hilux chase a Benz ....haaa.....it's like a dog competing with horse in a race....so sad the Police officer lost his life, if not, it would have been sweet to hear the space the Benz used in leaving their Hilux behind.

This one na family affair. E no suppose concern us.

Why was it at that particular minute he was approaching, life is so unfair.
