I didn\u2019t even talk to the police officers and that was my only offence, before the trigger happy officer shot directly at me. I thank God I was not hit by the bullet.<\/p>\n<p>He further said, \u201cImmediately I took a step toward the gate, what I saw was the muzzle, the front end of the gun pointed at me, if not God and the fact that I moved back immediately, I would have been a dead person today.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t talk to the officer neither did I confront him. I appeal to Nigerians to please ask him what I did to him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He called on the Commissioner of Police, Imo State Command to fish him out and sanction the said police officer to serve as a deterrent to other officers who are so quick in taking laws into their hands.<\/p>\n<p>Also speaking, Okeke Prince, the caretaker of the lodge expressed shock because he was not sure of their safety in the hands of the policemen anymore.<\/p>\n<p>According to the caretaker, \u201cThese officers assaulted Mr. Okpara Emmanuel of the Department Electrical Engineering, who is waiting for NYSC call-up and I queried why they took away his wristwatch, his phone and insisted they must search his room. I have to intervene because I\u2019m the caretaker but it only took the intervention of the community vigilantes to calm the situation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said the police officer must face the wrath of the law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A trigger-happy police officer attached to the Nekede Police Division, allegedly shot an ND2 student of the Federal Polytechnic Nekede, PolyNek.
