The killing at Rukpokwu was not a stray bullet. It was a direct shot in the head of a Keke rider that refused to part with N100. #EndSARS was barely 7wks ago & here we are. @MBuhari asked people not to protest but how do you stop this anger. @PoliceNG

This incident is coming amidst call by some Nigerians for a second wave of the #EndSARS protests against police brutality and human right abuse by law enforcement officers.

Meanwhile, many Nigerian have taken to their social media accounts to condemn the killing of the keke driver and also call for the arrest of the officer involved.

Police just killed a keke napep guy today at Rukpokwu (Mgbuchi) in Port Harcourt, and he ran away.
Please when will this stop?, when will the police stop killing us instead of protecting us?, if people should protest or retaliate now, Buhari will be disgusted. This is tiring tbh

To those of us in Port Harcourt, Rivers State. Please avoid Rukpokwu (New road) area. You can follow SARS road. Some shootings going on there this morning. Killing recorded. Traffic is heavy. Heavy Police presence over there. Stay safe.
