Another Police Victim

The responsibility of police in any society is to protect law and order.
This means one thing, the life of every individual must be protected.

It is disturbing when people whom the police are suppose to protect turns
to be their number one enemy. There are many incidence of police brutality
and accidental discharge, another one happened yesterday in Ikotun a suburb
of Lagos.

The news came in yesterday that a commercial driver popularly known as "Danfo"
was shut to death for refusing to stop after the police waved him down for driving
against traffic {one way}.

One is not trying to justify the action of the commercial driver but killing him is
definitely not the punishment for his offense.

Its high time the police authority come down really hard on their men and repose the
confidence in people the the police is truly "our friends"
