My friend on Facebook updated this post yesterday and he had this to say:
This is my cousin Chibyke Edeh, He was tortured to death by police men. Until his arrest and murder, he was working with Protea hotel in Benin. He was accused of stealing N45,000 from a guest in one of the rooms he attended to and as such was arrested, detained and not granted bail,the police men tortured him for him to say he was the one that stole the money but he stood his grand that its better for him to die than accept he stole the money which he did not.The police then asked the parents (my aunt and her husband) to go bring N27000 for his bail. By the time they got back with the money, they were told he was dead.
And from one of the activist I met today,he told me that the boy told his parents not to leave him there alone that they might not meet him there alive and unfortunately they didn't heed to his word,now the poor boy is dead.
I'm really wondering what this country is turning into,the people whom are suppose to save lives are taking people's lives like it's nothing.
Why won't they kill innocent citizens,when they fight themselves,it is only a matter of time before we(youths) will start killing them underground,we need to revoke,it is getting too much,how many more do they have to kill before we rebel against the force
This is a sad story that we must condemn and join the fight against killing innocent citizens by Men of the Nigerian police force...
I'm going to follow this story to the last.
