The man after being killed

A Facebook user identified as Halima Sadia, has revealed how a man was allegedly killed by Police officers at a checkpoint on his way to Zamfara state.

Another social media user, Hassan Sidi, disclosed that the man was driving a hilux van conveying rice when he approached customs officials at a checkpoint who allegedly requested a bribe from him.

Multiple online reports claim that the driver and father of three children offered to give the customs agents N1000 but they declined and asked him to add extra N500, which he reportedly ignored and then drove away.

It was gathered that the customs officials were said to have notified the police who were some meters away, that a criminal with a stolen vehicle was approaching them.

On sighting the said vehicle, the police operatives at their checkpoint opened fire on him. He reportedly lost control and crashed the vehicle. As he came out alive to explain he’s not a thief, the policemen were said to have shot at him again killing him in the process.
