It’s indeed a BlackSunday in Oyo town, Oyo State, following the death of yet to be identified Okada rider, who was killed by a stray bullet fired by men of the Nigeria customs.
A twitter user, Iya Kunmi, who shared the tragic story, said the event took place not long ago. He wrote;
“Barely 20 minutes ago, the men of the Nigeria Customs were in hot pursuit of a Sienna bus allegedly carrying rice.
“The customs officers were able to double cross the vehicle right at the front of the Bovas Filling Station. The occupants of the Sienna bus resisted attempts and this led the men of the Customs to open fire on them.
“The bullets didn’t penetrate. Along the line, one of the bullets hit an okada rider…
“Onlookers attempted rescuing the man but the customs officer started shooting at them. They sprayed till they exhausted their bullets and fled.
This is the country we found ourselves!!!
