Glamtush reports that the Lagos State Police Command said it has identified the police officer who shot a young man, Toheeb Eniafe, at a petrol station belonging to the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) at Obalende in the Ikoyi area of  Lagos State on Wednesday.

 

This was made known in a statement by the state Police Public Relations Officer, SP Benjamin Hundeyin on Thursday.

He said, “The person behind the shooting has been identified as a police officer serving at Special Protection Unit (SPU) Base 17, Lion Building, Lagos.

“Investigation is still ongoing and further findings will be made available.

 

“Meanwhile, the Lagos State Police Command is working with the family of the deceased to ensure that there is no miscarriage of justice.”
