Welder Shot By Police While Resisting Arrest In Anambra State. Photos by PrettyCrystal(op): 2:38pm On Jul 31, 2018
A massive protest was sparked by youths of Ukpor in Nnewi South Local Government Area, Anambra State, as they took to the street to agitate after a man, Okechuckwu, said to be a welder - was allegedly shot by policeman. 

According to reports, some policemen had arrived the victim's resident at about 11pm on Monday following a report by some group of people that the victim, a local welder causes public nuisance in the area as he usually works till very late at night.

He was reportedly shot by the police after he allegedly resisted arrest.

Hundreds of protesting youths from the area tried to gain entry into the police station earlier today but were resisted by policemen who were reinforced from nearby police stations, including the SARS unit.

A policeman reportedly revealed that they were invited by a member of a local vigilante from the village following reports that the victim's residence was being used as a meeting point for Indian hemp smokers.

Okey had bullet wounds in his leg and was rushed to a local hospital nearby. When the situation overwhelmed the medical team at the hospital, he was transferred to Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital, Nnewi.

The Nigerian police are only good at extorting and brutalizing. It's high time they take guns off their hands and give them batons and sticks to use so we avoid reading stories like these on a daily.

Great job by the Nigeria police force


Why was he resisting arrest huh


He must have committed a deadly crime


Hadn't been he's still alive,


I would say that he deserves a holding cell


But glory be to God that he has finally left the world


To continue his punishment in hades
