Many are questioning the conduct and accountability of law enforcement. One comment, reflecting the anger and frustration, stated, “They just carry police uniform give Boko Haram,” implying that the actions of some officers are comparable to the terror group, Boko Haram.
The incident highlights ongoing concerns about police brutality in Nigeria, echoing previous protests such as #EndSARS, and has once again fueled public demand for police reform and justice for victims of unlawful killings.
