He should be stripped off that uniform and put behind bars forever. Just killed a soul because u have a gun. Nigerian police needs proper scrutiny!

Dat means it's an intentional n meditated act, he shuld be sentenced to death for attacking n killing a defenceless civilian. Stupid man probably he felt threaten by d graduate, may his soul rip.
