It has just been gathered that a mobile Police Officer has been gunned down by Armed Robbers terrorising Orile, Mile 2.
According to an eye witness who narrated how the mobile Officer was killed said, “as he would always do, on that unfurtunate night he got an sos from a woman whose husband and others were being robbed at gunpoint at a GTB bank ATM near my Plaza.
“He called the First bank and GTB mopols security but none of them responded.
“He quickly ran with his pistol to help the people being robbed. He shot at the robbers and bullet didn’t enter, they shot at him and the bullet didn’t enter too.
“Unknown to him, the criminals gang had their colleagues stationed around. Two of the criminals grabbed him from behind; hit him with 4*4 wood at the back of his head; he fell down and they messed him up more with more and then riddled him with bullet and went back and continued the robbery operation. More than 10 people at the GTB bank Coker / Oduade branch were robbed as other groups blocked the express road while robbing cars that were passing.
“These criminals operated unchallenged for hours despite sos to police station Orile and police officers we saw Police men collecting money from motorists at Coker bus stop nearby.
“Mopol Buba was rejected at a nearby hospital and later died at about 2am Thursday morning leaving his wife and children fatherless.
‘I am pained because Buba was not just my CSO, he was a Gallant officer who would go to any length outside his comfort for the safety of others.
“Buba had been a torn in the flesh of these criminals for years now. Few weeks ago, he rescued someone while being robbed by the same criminals which left one of the criminals critically shot by mopol Buba. The criminals regrouped and rescued their fellow criminal who was shot but we heard he later died.
“Rumor has it that killing of Mopol Buba yesterday was a planned revenge from the hoodlums.
“Please this is an SOS call for the RRS to come to our help. This is enough evidence as they requested before. Please help escalate this appeal. Lives are being lost and terrorized daily by the criminals along Orile, Odunade, Suru-Alaba to Mile 2 axis”.
