Police Open Fire On Vehicle During Stop-And-Search, Kill 400-Level Student (24909 Views)

NaijaCover(m): 4:06pm On May 16

A 400-level student of Kwararafa University, identified as Ella, has been reportedly killed by men of the Nigeria Police in Benue State.

Ella met her tragic end after officers of the Nigeria Police Force allegedly opened fire on a vehicle during a stop-and-search operation at Wurukum Roundabout in Makurdi, Benue State.

According to human rights activist, Ukan Kurugh, the victim was in the vehicle when officers attached to the Makurdi E Division discharged their weapons, with a bullet fatally striking her.

Kurugh described the killing as “another unacceptable loss of innocent life” and demanded justice for the slain student.

DAILY POST correspondent reached out to the Benue State Police Public Relations Officer, Catherine Anene, for comments.

She responded via text, stating, “I will call you back.”

As of press time, no further response had been received.

We are tired of mourning! Another innocent life wasted by careless police gunfire. Ella’s death is not just an accident, it’s a consequence of unchecked brutality and systemic failure.
We demand justice, not silence. Enough is enough
May her soul rest In peace.
May Nigeria not happen to us.

Under tunubu, remmy and shayo, life has become invaluable.

Earlier this week, men of the Nigeria soldiers were gruesomely slaughtered by the militias of powers that be.

Living in the country this day in time, you have 1000 chance of not seeing the next day.

Helinus and yarimo will tell you that they just want to tarnish the government.

The most annoying thing here is that the police have refused to identify the officer who opened fire on the vehicle.
