Ilorin Killing: CDHR Condemns IG Of Police For Lying Over The Killing Of Ilorin Protester
The Committee for the Defence of Human Rights (CDHR) wishes to re-affirm that the Nigeria police murdered Muyideen Mustapha of the Opobiyi family Ilorin, a peaceful protester. This response has become necessary in view of spurious and the inconsistent lies by the police The Inspector General of Police (IGP) Hafiz Ringim, who was quoted this morning on the network news as claiming that Muyideen was murdered by BUTCHERS (those who slaughter animals) thereby changing the earlier version of the Kwara State Police Command that Muyideen was killed by protesters. The question a reasonable mind would now ask is; what would butchers be doing among protesters at the front of the post office while the abattoir their abode of operation is in far away Olooje, Ipata Market?
This is a mockery of the police force and a toga of ignoble exigencies from the government organ saddled with the responsibility of protecting lives and property. The CDHR is waiting for the next line of twist and inconsistency from the police over her primitive display of naked force against defenceless citizens as witness in the Ilorin killing.
The CDHR having investigated the ugly incident found that men of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) of the Kwara State police command shot and killed the deceased. The series of twists and inconsistencies in this case exposes the deceit and cacophony of lies of the Nigeria police.
Rather than shameless cover up, we expect the police to fully investigate and bring the killers of Muyideen to book.
The CDHR calls on all Nigerians to troop out as from Monday January 9, 2012 for the- mother- of- all- protests against the inhuman and astronomical increase in petroleum price. This struggle is a class struggle between the poor and the thieving ruling elites also known as the “cabals.” We urge Nigerians to reject all forms of slavery by these slave masters.
