The extrajudicial killing of Mene Ogidi, 28, on April 26 in Effurun, Delta State, is not just another grim headline. It is an indictment of a police force whose officers too often substitute the rule of law with the rule of the gun. Ogidi, reportedly found with a parcel containing a pistol, was already subdued, bound hand and foot, lying on the ground before a crowd, crying and pleading for his life. He even promised to lead officers to the source of the parcel in Sapele. The post The gruesome murder of Ogidi appeared first on The Sun Nigeria .
