TURMOIL IN ILE IFE OSUN STATE AS POLICEMAN SHOT DEAD A (YAHOO BOY) OVER N8 MILLION SCAM ALLEGED BRIBE
News from the ancient city
of Ile Ife in Osun State has alleged that a policeman shot dead one Mr Bashiru
Ayedun while leading a protest against the arrest of his colleague who made a
whopping N8 Million from scamming a client.
It was gathered that the
boys where celebrating the booty with the scammer when suddenly police appeared
from nowhere to arrest them. From the information gathered from an eyewitness
who does not want to be quoted, said the police have taken part of the loot and
still wanted to arrest the scammer. The police were offered N100,000 but they
rejected it on the ground that it was small considering that the booty was N8
Million.
During this negotiation,
an agreement was not reached and the police insisted on arresting the scammer
which led to fighting between the youths and the police that claimed the life
of one youth through a shot by a policeman.
As at the time of making
this report, the Osun State Police Command Public Relations Officer Mrs
Folashade Odoro, did not pick several calls made to her telephone to ascertain the
authenticity of the news as Punch reports.
Confirming the incident
was the Public Relations Officer of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps
in Osun State Mr Afolabi Babawale, who said one Bashiru Ayedun was shot dead by
a policeman which led to mayhem across the streets of Ile Ife in Osun State.
