Timi Dakolo Says Killer Cops Should Be Paraded, Treated Like Common Criminals

Dakolo stated this in a tweet on his handle on Thursday reacting to the shooting and killing of a Lagos lawyer, Bolanle Raheem by an ASP, Drambi Vandi.

Raheem was killed on Christmas day in the Ajah area of the state.

Bolanle was shot dead in the company of her husband and other family members when they were returning from Christmas Day service on Sunday morning.

Some reports indicated that the police officers attached to the Ajiwe police station in Ajah had allegedly ordered the car conveying them to stop.

The police officers allegedly shot at the car and the bullet hit the lawyer.

According to Dakolo, everyone sees how the Nigerian police parade criminals and asked questions and all, adding that they should do the same to their personnel.

The “Iyawo mi” crooner asked whether there is a law prohibiting such.

He wrote, “All these killer cops should be brought to the public space and be treated like common criminals.

“We see how the Nigerian police parade criminals and asked questions and all .they should do the same to their personnel. Or is there a law prohibiting it?”

Meanwhile, Kanyi Daily reported that the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Usman Bava Alkali has recommended the suspension of ASP Vandi.

Usman Alkali Baba noted that the recommendation for the suspension of the officer is in line with the internal disciplinary processes of the Force.

The IGP further noted that the suspension is also expected to create an enabling environment for necessary legal procedures to uphold justice in the case without interference.
