A
police Sergeant attached to the Festac command in Lagos has allegedly
wasted the life of a promising young man, 33 year old Oyoma Edewor, a
Building Finishing Contractor over “Egunje”. And according to reports,
this is the third time this kind of case will be reported in same Festac
Police Command.
On what happened that fateful day, eyewitnesses
said the building engineer’s car had had a slight problem somewhere
around Lekki, Lagos and instead of leaving it on the road to obstruct
traffic, he decided to get a towing van to take it home in Festac.
While they were on the road, as soon as the police team at the second junction, Festac sighted the
towing van which had already passed them, they hijacked the nearest commercial bus and ran after the van.
The
towing van was intercepted at the third junction and as soon as it was
stopped, Sergeant Otene and his colleague took charge dragging Oyoma
Edewor out of his towed Jeep and ordered him to seat on the ground.
The
Policemen were however said to have threatened him to settle them and
he was just about to explain the situation when Sergeant Otene allegedly
pulled the trigger and shot him at close range, saying they suspect
it's a stolen vehicle.
Though the police officer has been
reportedly arrested, reports say the Divisional Police Officer in charge
of the Festac Command is allegedly trying to act funny by changing the
face of the story in order to absolve his men. And Oyoma's friends are
demanding justice!
