A drunk policeman identified simply as Ola SARS, who turned up for a party organised on Thursday to mark Sallah celebration at Transformer Bus Stop, Adiyan, in Ogun State, reportedly shot his friend to death.
The deceased, 36-year-old Ayinde aka Aye and the policeman were invited to the party by the youth leader of the community popularly known as Azeez Terror. The party was reportedly organised by Azeez Terror’s father, who is a land agent.
A resident, who gave his name only as Bidemi, told our correspondent on Friday that some youths of the community staged a protest which caused pandemonium in the neighbourhood, adding that it took the intervention of the police to restore normalcy.
He said, “It was Azeez Terror’s father that organised the party to celebrate Sallah. It is a yearly event. The youth leader invited his friends including Ola SARS and Ayinde. I learnt Ola SARS works in Abuja. The party commenced in the afternoon and there was no issue until around 7pm.
“He started shooting into the air after he became drunk. Nobody provoked him. As he wanted to fire another shot into the air, he misfired and shot Ayinde in the chest. He bled profusely and was rushed to the hospital. He died shortly afterwards.
“As I speak with you, Azeez Terror, his father and the killer policeman are still at large. It was very sad. The deceased was an estate agent and had two kids. His wife has been inconsolable since then.
