Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The family, friends, relatives and business associates of an Abuja trader, Onyebuchi Anene have lamented the gruesome killing of the Anambra businessman by a police officer.<\/p>\n

Onyebuchi, from the information gathered , was murdered few metres away from his residence in an Estate located at Byazhin, along Arab Road, Kubwa, Abuja, at about 10:30 pm on Wednesday, May 22, 2024 on his way home.<\/p>\n

Onyebuchi, simply called Onyi by his friends, is a trader who does his business in the Jabi district, Abuja.<\/p>\n

The day he met his untimely death, Onyebuchi was returning home from his business and was already close to the gate of the estate, where he resides with his wife and two daughters.<\/p>\n

That the businessman had an altercation with a commercial motorcyclist, also known as Okada, at a junction leading to the entrance to his residence.<\/p>\n

It was said that after a few minutes of argument, Onyi and the bike man came to terms, settled their differences and were about to leave the scene, when a police van arrived.<\/p>\n

Both men were said to have informed the policemen of what happened and also told them that the matter had been resolved between them. However, the policemen insisted on taking them to the station.<\/p>\n

The okada rider, who had a passenger waiting for him, was said to have swiftly dismissed the policemen, telling them he had no business going to the station and started his motorcycle and zoomed off with the passenger.<\/p>\n

The police insisted on taking Onyi to the station and on their van too.<\/p>\n

Onyi, according to eyewitnesses, was puzzled and demanded to know why the police wanted him at the station while the okada man was allowed to go.<\/p>\n

He also questioned the purpose of going to the station since he had settled amicably with the motorcycle rider.<\/p>\n

And when he agreed to follow them to the station, he asked them to allow him to wind up his glasses which were all wound down but the police refused. They were said to have also refused to allow him to follow them riding on his Mercedes Benz.<\/p>\n

As they argued, the driver of the police van, who hadn\u2019t been in the picture all this while, according to residents, came out from a vehicle bearing a teargas gun which shot directly on the trader\u2019s forehead at a very close range with the canister piercing through his nose.<\/p>\n

Doctors confirmed him dead at about 8 am on Thursday morning at the National Hospital Abuja. He left behind his wife and two daughters.<\/p>\n

Ogochukwu Onyebuchi, wife of the deceased, told DAILY POST her story.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn that fateful day, I spoke with my husband around 8 pm. He told me that he was on his way back. But around 10:45, my neighbour came knocking on my door, calling me to open the door, when I opened the door, the whole estate was outside.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd I saw them washing my husband\u2019s car. And I asked \u2018where\u2019s my husband?\u2019 And they told me to calm down and that they were going to take me to where my husband is. When I insisted, they said I should calm down, that my husband was alive.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey said they were taking me to the National Hospital. Even while we were on our way to the hospital, nobody told me what happened. When we got to the National Hospital, I saw my husband struggling for his life. He couldn\u2019t breathe.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis tongue was coming out. But he recognised my voice. Immediately I called him \u2018baby, I don\u2019t know what happened but be strong for me, be strong for my children\u2019. He gave me signs that he was strong but he was struggling with his life.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe doctor told us to go out because they wanted to attend to him, but after an hour, the doctor called me to say that my husband\u2019s brain was blocked for the past one hour but they don\u2019t know what happened, that it started working again.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe told us to pray. After 30 minutes, they said they were going to do an X-ray. After the X-ray, I checked on him after every 10 minutes and when I talked to him, he no longer responded. He was breathing heavily, battling for his life.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was begging God to help me because my husband is a good man. The doctor said they would operate him around 4:30 and as we were waiting for the doctor; they shifted the operation, saying they have to stabilise him first. They shifted it from 4:30 to 8: am.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut around 8 am I noticed that something was wrong. When I touched his head, it was blocked. His body was blocked. Only his laps were warm. 30 minutes later, the doctor called me and confirmed my husband was dead. His friends rushed him to the ICU but nothing happened.\u201d<\/p>\n

On responses they got from the police, she added, \u201cI don\u2019t know their names, maybe he\u2019s the Byazhin police station DPO, he just came and said \u2018madam, sorry for what happened. We\u2019re carrying out an investigation.\u2019 Today again, the Commissioner of Police came and said \u2018I shouldn\u2019t worry that justice must prevail\u2019.<\/p>\n

Adaeze, one of the late businessman\u2019s neighbours and friend to the wife.
\n\u201cI\u2019m her [Ogochukwu] friend and neighbour. On Wednesday, May 22, 2024, at about 10:30 pm I was lying down and suddenly I was hearing a voice, \u2018Somebody help me, somebody help me.\u2019 I became scared and worried.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd within some time, one of my neighbours called me on the phone. I was surprised because she\u2019s not the kind of person to call by that time of the night. When I picked she told me that Ogochukwu\u2019s husband had been shot.<\/p>\n

\u201cI stood up from the chair and ran out immediately. We heard the gunshot, a sound but we didn\u2019t know what it was. When I ran out and asked what happened, they said he was shot as he was coming back from work.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey said I was called because I\u2019m the only one that can bring her [Ogochukwu] out in this circumstance. Her husband\u2019s car was covered with blood. When we met him at the hospital, he was seeing. His eyes were covered by blood. The eyes bulged out with blood coming out from his nose, ears and mouth. The sight was terrible.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe canister pierced his nose and entered his tongue. He didn\u2019t have a tongue. It was like his tongue entered inside his mouth. His mouth was just opened but you cannot see his tongue while everywhere was covered with blood. The canister was still stocked on his nose.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was the last conversation and by the time we went back there, he had gone into unconsciousness.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe teargas canister was shot at him at a very close range at his face and the thing stocked his nose and the doctor said the thing is very dangerous. It goes directly to the brain and damages the system within some minutes.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe doctor said he had a 50-50 chance of survival. The Police Commissioner came here earlier and said the officer is already in detention and he promised to do anything to ensure that justice is served.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ugo Maduabuchi, the Coordinator of the business community, where the deceased belong to.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cI think it is important to highlight these issues. Because there has been a misconception about this thing, especially from the Commissioner of Police when he alleged at the hospital that it could be a case of accidental discharge.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt seems the Commissioner of Police wants to preempt the investigation he said he wants to conduct by saying it was an accidental discharge.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to send a message to the Commissioner of Police, who is by the way a good Commissioner of Police, he\u2019s been trying.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut this incident of distortion by his men must stop because that is what this thing is all about.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnyi was coming back from work and had a small scuffle with an okada rider that was carrying a passenger and in the course of argument, the okada rider said he wanted his motorcycle repaired, but Onyi\u2019s car got damaged too.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Okada man said it\u2019s not his fault, likewise Onyi. But the passers-by police patrol now saw the scuffle and stopped.<\/p>\n

\u201cInitially, Onyi was like, thank God the police are here; unfortunately, they were not there to settle the matter.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey decided to take two of them to the police station. But the okada man, who said that police are not his friend and refused to follow them to the station, insisted he was on the verge of settling the matter before they came and they did settle and shook hands and the okada man left with his passenger.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe police allowed the okada man to leave but held onto Onyi maybe because he\u2019s the one with the Benz and they have seen that he\u2019s an Igbo businessman.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause they estort more from us, that\u2019s why they insisted he must follow them to the station. Onyi was like, I don\u2019t understand, follow you to the police station for what?<\/p>\n

\u201cThe person I had issues with has gone and said he doesn\u2019t want a case again. And in the process, they insisted and jacked him from the belt.<\/p>\n

\u201cThen Onyi realised that this thing is getting out of hand and told them he had agreed to follow them to the station. But since the car was parked along the road with the glasses all wound down and nobody in it, he said okay, let\u2019s ride with my car to the station or allow us to follow you with my car.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey said no. That they must take him in their vehicle. He said how can I follow you and leave my car wound down. What if it is vandalised?<\/p>\n

\u201cThey told him they don\u2019t care. And in the process, the trigger-happy policeman that was the driver, felt he was wasting their time and brought out the canister and aimed straight at Onyi\u2019s head intentionally.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a matter of fact, we\u2019re coming from the Deputy Commissioner of Police office and they brought out all the patrol team and they confessed that when he shot that gun they were all surprised because he wasn\u2019t even there ab initio.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s just a trigger-happy policeman that feels he has the whole power because of the uniform he\u2019s wearing and the gun he\u2019s holding.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a clear case of murder. And we from the business community, we\u2019re going fully for justice. The Commissioner has assured us he\u2019s in detention that they will try him, definitely find him guilty, dismiss and hand him over to the law to take its course.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re more than 30,000. We\u2019re a very large business community, UOO and Sabondele located at Jabi. We\u2019ve been trying since yesterday to restrain our members from taking law into their hands. As a matter of fact, there were three attempts to burn down the police station yesterday but we foiled them.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow it\u2019s up to the Nigeria police to prove to us if they\u2019re really our friends or enemies. Or that they just armed that policeman to be killing people.\u201d<\/p>\n

Met Mr Michael Nwanna, the deceased father\u2019s brother, who told a similar story, saying, \u201cIt happened on Wednesday, when the young man was going home and \u2018Okada brushed him\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd after one or two arguments, they settled. But the police all of sudden, appeared and said, no no no, you\u2019ve not settled. All of you will go to the station.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd the Okada refused to follow them, climbed his bike and left. Then they insisted that he (Onyi) must follow them to the station and he refused.<\/p>\n

\u201cThen the driver of the police vehicle, who was inside the van while they were arguing, just opened the door and aimed the teargas gun directly at him and shot him.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe young man he was carrying took him to the hospital. We have his pictures when he was struggling to survive. The police said they\u2019ll do their investigations. Well, let\u2019s see what will come out of it.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the Federal Capital Territory, FCT Police Command, the Public Relations Officer, DSP Josephine Adeh, confirmed the incident.<\/p>\n

She said the police officer in question was already cooling his feet in detention, adding that investigation had commenced immediately.<\/p>\n

According to Mrs. Adeh, \u201cWell, the man [the police officer] is under detention and investigations have commenced into the facts of what really happened.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe investigation is headed by the Deputy Commissioner of Police in charge of the State CID, FCT.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is personally investigating this ugly incident and we have to wait till the end of the investigation for us to ascertain what happened and brief members of the public exactly what happened.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut definitely, the Commissioner of Police has assured that after the investigation, the outcome would be communicated to the members of the public and justice will be duly served.\u201d<\/p>\n
