A mobile police officer serving in Bauchi state shot and killed his superior and former ADC to Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan, Superintendent of Police, Chris Eza (in picture) on Thursday, February 26 in Bauchi.
According to family sources, Chris Eza had gone out to get food at an eatery along Ahmadu Bello way around 9.00pm when he saw some police officers on patrol. In his observation, he found out that one of them, the suspect, was not properly dressed and immediately cautioned him. The junior officer, a Corporal, got angry and began to grumble for being told to dress properly.
An angry Chris felt his action was insubordination and warned the officer that he was going to disarm him if he didn’t take to correction. Instead of apologizing, the junior officer cocked his gun and threatened to shoot his boss.
He told Eza that if he came close to him, he would shoot. Calling his bluff, Eza moved towards the officer, who immediately opened fire. Other officers around rushed Chris to the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Teaching Hospital (ATBUTH), Bauchi where he was pronounced dead on arrival. Until his death, he was the MOPOL 11 Commander.

This is the likes of Mbu(you kill one, I kill twenty), if a corporal can shoot and kill his superior officer just for correcting him, God knows how many defenseless civilians had fallen in the hand of this monster in police uniforms. May God help defenceless Nigerians.
