The Kwara State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Chinwike Asadu, has been shot dead by unknown gunmen Saturday night in Enugu.
Also shot but receiving treatment at the National Orthopaedic Hospital, Enugu are his police orderly, Aloha Olaniyi and Driver, Oliver Omeh, who were with him at the time of the incident.
The incident which occurred at Amorji Nike, near the densely populated Abakpa Nike area in Enugu East local government area within the state capital at about 10 pm has thrown the Enugu state police high command into a state of frenzy as the new Police Commissioner, Mr. Tonye Ebitibituwa, has ordered a state wide manhunt for the perpetrators of the dastardly act.
The State Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Ebere Amaraizu who confirmed the incident described the attack as very unfortunate. He said that the CP was on a private visit to his home in Enugu when the incident occurred.
I cry whenever I hear this type of bad news. A police commissioner? I have always blamed our wicked leaders for these kind of incidents. Stop your looting and create jobs for our youths. Create job for our young ones to lessen the burden, the risk of a police person in Nigeria. The police have suddenly become an endangered specie. Police people are killed daily these days in Nigeria and nobody seems to care. When youths are idle and hungry, satan will surely beckon on them. Let our leaders decide now to restitute and bring back all the monies they have stolen from Nigeria and use these monies to create jobs for our youths. Plzzzzzz.
God save Naija!
unemployment is not the issue,is all about our system and process,method of investigation…how scientific is our style of diagnosing issues each time we have a similar occurence like this.For instance,the bullets removed from the late commissioner’s body should be retrieved and trace who among our forces are assigned to use that kind of bullets.Does bullets,arms have serial number,who imported them legally or illegally and so on….this is not the time for pity party of youth unemployment.
our condolence goes to the berieved family of the late commissioner.
