Accidental Discharge: Police dismiss corporal for killing 2 women at funeral

A Police Corporal, Ali Christopher, who accidentally fired and killed 2 nursing mothers on 27 June, 2015, at a funeral in Fugar town, in Edo State, has been dismissed from the Force.
A Orderly Room Trial set up by the State Command of Nigerian Police Force which found him guilty, recommended his dismissal and trial for murder.
Corporal Ali Christopher with Force No. 444040 was until his dismissal, attached to the Auchi Area Commander’s office.
Edo State Police Command’s Public Relations Officer, DSP Stephen Onwochei, confirmed the dismissal of the erring officer to journalists in Benin, adding that the case “has been thoroughly dealt with. Two police officers were arrested. At the end of investigations, one officer was found to be culpable.
“That person has been tried in Orderly room, he is a corporal, and as I speak with you he has been dismissed. Hopefully by next week he shall appear in court.”
The Edo police spokesman who advised police officers to be guided by Force Order 237 which spells out the use of arms by officers, also appealed to members of the public to always keep a reasonable distance from any officer bearing arms.

The dismissed policeman allegedly fired his gun, one of the bullets narrowly missed a 2-month-old baby who was strapped to the back of its mother before hitting the mother on her neck.
The victim was identified as Sandra Imhaku,
reportedly lost her husband last year while expecting the baby. She was said to have been rushed to Irrua Specialist Hospital, Irrua, where she died the following day.
The second victim simply identified as Mrs. Saliu, an indigene of Fugar, came from Warri, Delta State with her husband to attend the funeral of her in-law, one late Mr. Itu Joseph when the incident occurred.

Dismissal is not enough. He should serve jail term with hard labour.

The police commandants should advice their officers to be locking their guns until when is the appropriate time to use it, this is because the similar cases hv happened several times even in this Abuja just of recent and killed the only child of her parents and even so many places. pls police commandants or govt should do sth about it is becoming too much

also appealed to members of the public to always keep a reasonable distance from any officer bearing arms. What does that mean? was it the fault of the victims ? So once we see an officer with a gun, we should all run away to keep REASONABLE distance. Mstcheeewww


It was a mistake quite alright but as trained officer he should be tried from man slaughter







Human Being No Be God

I know it was a mistake, but serves him right. When u hold something as dangerous as a gun, especially in the midst of civilians who are no threats, u apply extra caution.
