Police Spokesman Says Spirituality Is Only Explanation for Effurun Shooting

Delta State Police Public Relations Officer, Bright Edafe, says spirituality is the only explanation to the shooting to death of a suspect by a personnel of the command.

Edafe made this statement on Wednesday while fielding questions in an interview on Channels Television’s ‘The Morning Brief’.

He was reacting to the extrajudicial killing of a suspect by an Assistant Superintendent of Police.

The police spokesman described the incident as a difficult moment for the force.

Recall that one ASP Nuhu Usman shot a suspect, Mene Ogidi, to death in Effurun, Delta State.

Reacting, Edafe said, “I will start with the the issue at hand, which is a very sad issue.

‘Since my six years of public relations, this is my most difficult moment, because having an incident that cannot be explained is very difficult. There is no explanation for this.

“That policeman, I just don’t get what I will say was wrong with him.
Police cannot attribute problems to spirituality, but that may not be far from me, because that’s the only explanation that one can give to what he did.”
