Bara'u popularly known as Danlami was
allegedly killed by a trigger-happy police officer
in Maraban Jos, Kaduna State on Tuesday
November 15th. Facebook user who shared the
story, calling for justice, wrote;
"The incidence occurred around 8pm of
Tuesday 15th November 2016 while the
victim was seated outside his residence
in Maraban Jos when a team of police
stormed the area in the name of patrol.
Having fractured his leg and being
innocent, Danlami remain seated as the
police arrived.
One Police Officer nicknamed KURA
(literarilly mean Hyena) ordered Danlami
to stand up and run before he shoots
him, which he calmly replied that he
cannot run because his leg is fractured
displaying his crutches. Unfortunately for
Danlami, the barbaric KURA shot him to
dead (the pic). Immediately after he shot
Danlami, angry youths descended on
KURA and were about to take jungle
justice on him. It took the intervention of
some respected elders and a human
right activist (name with-held) to rescue
him. The case has since been filed at
Unguwan Sunusi Police Station and we
learnt that KURA was transferred to
State CID. Our fear is the usual, we don't
want the case dead at arrival just
because a Police Officer involved.
Let us
stand up for justice! Let us think of his
wife and 3 kids! The State Government
should do something!! The IGP should
ensure KURA is brought to book!!! Keep
sharing until justice is done. All we want
is #Justice4Danlami......... May his soul
rest in peace.
