Arrest him, take him to court and charge him for murder. If he doesn’t get death sentence at least life in prison is not bad

Very Good Development.
We must get to the root of this personally.
Justice should be done.
Sanity must return to our police force.

Wow....

It's well with us

Just like that? When will this madness stop. Death to the killer cop!

God help us...... Very scary news

Yeah that is what I am talking about... Good policing right there


They need to use him as example to other police officers ... If you are frustrated in your uniform work resign don't bring your frustrations from your house too work and start killing people ..

He has to face the long arm of the law not just dismissal... Give him a criminal murderer treatment, couple with press conference and public parading ... It needs to be LOUD! Very loud.

Weldon to Lagos state police especially RRS those guys are the best in west Africa! Gallant men! And women!!

For this life no try argue with police oo because their head no correct at all.

No proof
No names
No pictures
No video

Just audio.
