Police officer who killed young lady in Ijeshatedo dismissed from service; to be arraigned in court

The police officer who fatally shot a young lady at her home in Ijeshatedo, Lagos state on September 11, has been dismissed from service and would be arraigned in court soon.

 

The police made this known in a statement signed by the Lagos State Police Command PRO, CSP Adekunle Ajisebutu. It reads

 

''This is to inform the general public that Sgt Samuel Philipps who was tried for the shooting incident of 11th September, 2021 that led to the death of Monsurat Ojuade has been dismissed from the Nigeria Police Force. He was dismissed after conclusion of his orderly room trial. The suspect will be charged to court today for murder.

Recall that the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosu, had promised that the matter would be properly investigated and that justice would be served. This action is, therefore, done in fulfillment of that promise. 

The Commissioner of Police further sympathises with the bereaved family, and reiterates his earlier promise that justice would be done in this case.''

    Stop fooling people with fake or false report why not show the culprit face so everyone can identify or see him instead of giving us a bogus name called unknown officer. Issue like this in oyinbo country thier faces are being shown for justice sake abi na spirit kill the girl. The essence of the news is to calm down the unrest residents or protesters, kkller could have been moved to another location Tell truth and let us move Nigeria forward a step of this kind could do alot in reshaping our bad images if thieves, bandits etc faces and being interviewed are shown or aired on TV what stops criminals officers faces to be shown as well
