There was pandemonium on Wednesday afternoon in Asaba, Delta State following the killing of Onyeka Ibe, by a police inspector, Ebri Ubi.

The killing of the young man by the policeman while on Stop and Search duty along Ugbolu-Illah Road, Oshimili North Local Government Area of the state sparked off protest from youths of the area who demanded justice on the sad incident.

The deceased NewsNet Nigeria gathered was popularly known for repairing phones in Asaba and a Yahoo boy contrary to claims.

In a swift reaction after the incident, the Commissioner of Police Delta State, CP Ari Muhammed Ali, ordered the arrest and detention of the errant police officer.

The police boss also directed that the ‘triggered drunk’ policeman be transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department, Asaba, for a thorough and speedy investigation.

In a statement by the spokesperson for the Delta State Police Command, DSP Bright Edafe, the CP “expressed heartfelt condolences to the family of late Mr. Onyeka Ibe, who was reportedly shot dead on the 5/4/2023 at about 0930 hours by an Inspector of Police, one Inspr.

“The CP noted that the Force, being a disciplined organisation, will not condone such cruel action by any member of the Force assuring that the offending Officer will be subjected to internal disciplinary measures, including criminal prosecution.

“He, therefore, appealed to members of the public to remain calm and law-abiding, assuring them justice will not just be done but will be seen to have been done,” said the statement.
