The Nigerian Police Osun command has dismissed an inspector named Ago Egharevbe for allegedly brutalizing a 20-year-old fashion designer, Ayomide Taiwo, to death.
AllNews recalls that Ayomide had been in a coma since Tuesday following the attack by Egharepbe, a police officer attached to Ibokun Divisional Headquarters, Osun State.
Ayomide was reportedly traveling back to his base, Owena from Iragbiji after the Eid-el-Kabir festival with his friend, Wasiu Oladimeji, when their motorcycle was stopped by some policemen at a checkpoint in Ilahun.
Oladimeji, while narrating how the incident happened on Thursday, explained that the policemen stopped their motorcycle and demanded a bribe.
An uncle to the deceased, Segun Agboola, told newsmen that Ayomide passed on around 10 am Sunday.
The Command’s spokesperson, Opalola Yemisi, in a statement on Sunday in Osogbo, explained that Egharevbe was arrested after the incident.
Yemisi said the inspector had been tried in an orderly room and that the Commissioner of Police, Undie Adie, had recommended his dismissal to the Inspector General of Police.
The statement read, “The Osun State Police Command wishes to state that the officer, Inspector Ago Egharepbe, who brutalized a civilian in Ibokun has been tried and dismissed from the force.
“The Commissioner of Police, Undie Adie, has recommended his dismissal to the Inspector General of Police and he has been dismissed”.
