Hours after the video went viral and sparked outrage, Delta State police released a statement, explaining what happened and confirming the arrest of the officer who killed the young man, while assuring the public that justice would be served.

In a follow-up video shared late last night on Instagram, activist Harrison Gwamnishu has revealed more details about the incident, insisting that the young man was innocent and was ready to expose the real culprit before his life was cut short.

According to Gwamnishu, Mene Ogidi was asked by a friend to collect a package from a garage using a waybill number. He went to pick it up, unaware that the parcel contained a gun.

On his way out, police officers stopped him, searched the package, and discovered the weapon.

While explaining that he had no knowledge of the gun and was willing to lead them to the friend who sent him, one of the officers, ASP Nuhu Usman, fired the fatal shot.

Harrison alleged that the arrested police officer likely knew about the weapon delivery, which was why he killed the young man to silence him and avoid being exposed.

“He was ready to talk and even take them to his friend, but instead of investigating, they killed him. Nuhu Usman likely knows about the gun delivery, that's whay he shot him so that he will not be exposed” Gwamnishu said.

The activist explained that Ogidi was an upcoming artist whose family had initially declared him missing, not knowing he had been killed two days earlier.

He said that if he had not spoken out, the police would have remained silent.

“If I didn’t speak yesterday, they would have kept quiet. The incident happened on April 26, but no statement came until the video went viral,” he added.

Gwamnishu gave an update on other officers present at the shooting scene, confirming that all officers involved are now being moved to Abuja for investigation and disciplinary action.

He also expressed gratitude to the person who recorded the video, thanking him for exposing the evil act.
