The protest against the brutality of the police has seen Nollywood actress, Lilian Afegbai and her mother, Carol Onyekachi Afegbai called out for an unexpected incident.
The mother of the Nigerian actress has been accused by Nigerians of killing Momodu Ibrahim, a student of the University of Benin (UNIBEN) in May 2013.
Nigerians in their reactions called on President Muhammadu Buhari-led government and the Nigeria Police to arrest and investigate Carol.
Twitter users as at 9:00 am on Saturday have posted more than 55,000 contents about the senior police operative, they vowed to start an online petition to get signatories to demand her prosecution.
The call started when Lilian released a video on End SARS protests, she had condemned those who called her names for wearing a “seductive” outfit to rally ground in Lekki, a highbrow area of Lagos.
The Nollywood actress in the video stated that appearance doesn’t matter but the motive.
Nigerians who were not moved by her words recalled how Lilian’s mother, Carol allegedly executed a citizen seven years ago.
The Edo Political Forum in June 2013, had accused CSP Carol Onyekachi Afegbai, the Divisional Police officer (DPO) of Ogida Police Station in Edo State of killing Ibrahim
The body, in a petition signed by Emmy Uwangue, said the then Commissioner of Police (CP) alleged that the young man was an armed robber.
The petitioners quoted the CP as saying that the student was “a bus driver and that a cut-to-size gun was found on the young man after he was shot just about 100 meters from his family’s house where he resided before Afegbai killed him.”
They noted that she claimed to have a nightmare the day before the incident in which she personally killed two armed robbers.
“Carol Afegbai led out a team on May 27 looking for two imaginary armed robbers to kill, saying that her dreams always come true.”
The forum decried that Momodu was hurriedly buried on May 28 without the consent of the family or any close relative.
“How can you kill an innocent boy and bury him, this is another Clifford Orji in Edo State as killer DPO Carol Onyekachi Afegbai,” the petition said.
EPF demanded that Afegbai be dismissed and be “tried for murder for killing innocent persons, and be investigated properly about the source of her stupendous wealth”.
However, the police are yet to react to the accusation against their operative.
