Some youths in Ibadan on Tuesday protested at Oyo State Government Secretariat over the killing of a student by a stray bullet allegedly fired by a policeman.
The student, said to be writing the ongoing West African Examinations Council (WAEC) was hit by the stay bullet in the early hours of Tuesday around Gbagi Market.
The student was on his way to write the examination in company with his sibling and father when the incident occurred.
It was learnt that the stray bullet was fired by a police officer who was pursuing a suspect.
The victim was immediately rushed to Welfare Hospital but was pronounced dead on arrival.
Our correspondent reports that some angry residents protested against the killing of the student.
The protesters took the student’s lifeless body to the Oyo State Government Secretariat, calling on Governor Seyi Makinde to intervene.
President of Save the Poor and Needy Charity Initiative (SPANCI), Comrade Yemi Ezekiel Bello, condemned the killing in a statement obtained by DAILY POST.
Bello urged the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, to investigate the matter.
He said, “Dear IGP and stakeholders, kindly investigate the above case as allegedly reported that a man was taking his children to school this morning and some alleged police officers and OYRTMA, while casing Yahoo boys, and others said while chasing traffic law offenders, started shooting indiscriminately and bullet hit this little boy and killed him.
“According to the report, it was confirmed that the officers conducted themselves unprofessionally which led to the death of this little boy whose father said he has been taking care of them and refused to remarry since their mother left 7 years ago.”
