A 21-year-old man has reportedly been shot by yet-to-be-identified policemen for refusing to give them N200,000.
Activist, Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), disclosed this in a video on his Facebook page on Sunday, showing the young man lying in the hospital.
The activist said the incident occurred in Kubwa, Bwari Area Council of the FCT, Abuja.
“21-year-old boy shot by the police yesterday in Kubwa, Abuja because they requested 200k and he didn’t have to give them,” VeryDarkMan posted along with the video of the incident.
“Are we going to be running away from thieves, armed robbers and kidnappers, and still be running away from Nigeria Police that are supposed to be protecting us?
“This thing is getting crazier by the day. Just look at this young boy on my screen that was allegedly shot yesterday. This boy said they met him and next thing, they were asking him to bring N200,000.”
VDM called on the Force Police Public Relations Officer, and FCT Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, to investigate the matter.
