“The Commissioner of Police, CP Isaac Akinmoyede, wondered why the officers refused to adhere to the rules guiding the use of firearms.

“The CP, while sympathizing with the family of the deceased, urged them to remain calm, as the command would do everything possible to ensure that justice is done.
