Godwin was returning home from church with his wife, their 11 month old baby Elijah and their other three children when they were flagged down by a group of police men attached to the Isheri Ogun Police Division in Lagos.
Narrating what happened, the deceased woman's 9 year old daughter said
"When we were coming back from church, as we were going police stopped our daddy. Our daddy stopped and parked his Marwa(tricyle) in one place. As my daddy came outside to discuss with the police, my mummy also came out to discuss with the police. After they finished discussing, they tried entering the motor. My daddy first entered the Marwa. As my mummy now want to enter the marwa. the police shot my mummy in her head. The bullet now entered her head and came out and affect my daddy. They carried my daddy to general hospital. After blood now start rushing from my mummy's head. My mummy fell on the floor with the baby. One man now came and carried the baby from my mummy"she said
Meanwhile the late woman's family are demanding for justice. Godwin Ekpo, husband of the deceased pictured with the bandage wrapped around his face.

ReplyDeleteEya!
ReplyDeletePoor children
E no go better for that policeman.
But why do the poor have children like this. We need total reorientation. This is not right. The poor can't keep giving birth like this and expect to be fed by the rich who have two children. Am sorry for the outburst.
ReplyDeleteRip to the dead. Justice and compensation awaits the man.
Had they knocked on your door to ask you for financial support? Mind your business please.
DeleteAnon 11:47, did you at any point in the article read that the man asked for financial help from anyone ? Why are you so bitter that the man has children ? Who are you to say what is right and what is not right concerning a man that Comfortably takes care of his family? You are the one that need total reorientation
DeleteYou are a compound FOOL
Delete@Galore
We re talking about justice here u re talking about plenty children,cant u have a sen sense for ones,think Guy,u re far from the truth.
DeleteYou're very stupid and heartless and most probably a beast. We're talking of children that their mother was killed by trigger happy policeman and you're talking bullshit. God punish you.
DeleteYou are a retard.... where they begging.. They were coming back from church n those kids don't look malnourished so what's in your head... people just tend to write rubbish n it's so annoying
DeleteMoronic being you are....rich indeed
DeleteU r very stupid for going off point. Devil
DeleteYou must be very stupid anonymous 11:47pm. Did the said family ever come to beg for help from you? Did they tell you they couldn't cater for their children? An unfortunate thing happened and this is thr rubbish that comes out of your mouth? If anyone likes let thrm have 24 children.......it's non of your business. Idiot.
DeleteAnonymous I read your comment and can only pray that u and your family experience such unjust and painful act dat jus happened to ds family.amen
DeleteDATS POLICEMEN SHUD BE SACKD..OR LET HIM JOIN ARMY AT SAMBISA TO XERCISE HIS POWER..USELES IDIOTIC BASTARD...JUSTICE IS WAT WE WANT FOR DS FAMILY...HE DINT C LEG TO SHOOT INOCNT PERDON..DRE HUD B RESTRUCTURIN IN DS POLICE FORCE IF AT AL DIA IMAGE CN B REDEEMD...TOMJERRYSWIT

ReplyDeleteHang alive.......bastard police dem dry should banned them in Nigeria maself dirty jobs is their work
ReplyDeleteGOSH POLICE BRUTALITY...If oyinbo do dis kind tin we go shout racism...omg
ReplyDeleteNigeria police may u guys never see good things in ur life, hell fire awaits all of you
ReplyDeleteThis is not the kind of prayer a good citizen should pray. The fact that there are some bad people in the police does not mean they all bad. They need training and good pay. Several of them are drug addicts and should be rehabilitated or discharged.
DeleteTogether let all civilians fight for our right, and let that police pay dearly.
ReplyDeleteThe national priority in fighting evil and corruption should be to expand (1) Prisons (2) Police Colleges
ReplyDeleteWithout a properly trained police force it is impossible to fight crime and corruption.
That's useless policeman must be served desame faith, killed the poor woman for nothing. Useless poilce that shoot down the civilians they have vowed to protect. A life for a life oooo
ReplyDeletelinda pls correct dat report dat d woman was shot by a trigger happy police cus d accused in question opened fire bcos he did nt get his fare share f #200 bribe. so correct dat abeg cus d tin stil dey vex me dat dis police men keep killin innocent citizens ad if na armed robber dem go run 4 dier life.so sad

ReplyDeleteIs any1 even seen how cute d little baby boy his? Gosh & again he will not knw his month wen he grows up else thru pic, all in d name of nija police. Anywayz we re waitin to see wat dey. Wil GOV wil do for d family, cos right nau dey ve become GOV property Linda pls join ur voice wit d people & let say NO!! Enough of police wit d goat brain.
ReplyDeleteVery sad and touching. May justice prevail. God please take care of this innocent beautiful children
ReplyDeleteNa wa o..and the police man won't be punished shey? Naija police eh, fish brain mofos #singinavemaria
ReplyDeleteMaybe our cops at checkpoints should be given rubber bullets to avert merciless killings.
ReplyDeleteThis cop deserves quick trial and summary execution is his lot as the poor woman was not even the Marwa driver. All the kids of the woman deserve scholarship.
The mob would have killed the police man too.
ReplyDeleteGosh!
ReplyDeleteThis is heart aching
Oga police, wetin be this?
...NA ZO
Chai..this is terrible

ReplyDeleteLinda please confirm. Heard the husband died too
