Nigerian activist and comedian, Mr Macaroni, has expressed outrage following the tragic death of a schoolboy allegedly killed by a police stray bullet in Ibadan, Oyo State.

According to eyewitness reports, the incident occurred near Gbagi Market, where police officers were reportedly in pursuit of a vehicle. During the chase, an officer allegedly opened fire, and a stray bullet struck a secondary school student who was sitting in his father’s car.

The student, who was on his way to sit for the ongoing WAEC examination alongside his twin brother, was rushed to Welfare Hospital but was confirmed dead on arrival. Protesters were reported to have taken the corpse to the Oyo State Secretariat to inform Governor Seyi Makinde.

Devastated by the news, Mr Macaroni took to social media to condemn the Nigerian Police Force.
