A Ghanaian national resident in Anambra State, was on Wednesday reported dead after a ‘drunk’ policeman allegedly shot him.
The victim, simply identified as Andem, reportedly caught the officer’s bullet in the neck and was rushed to the Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu Teaching Hospital in Awka by sympathizers and onlookers.
Until his death, Andem owned an electrical appliance shop at the Aroma area of the state capital, Awka, where he worked as an electrician.
An eyewitness who spoke on the incident said, “The policeman shoots sporadically with his service pistol each time he visits the area.
“He is a drunk and each time he is intoxicated, he behaves abnormally. He has been terrorizing us.
“Everybody knows him around here because of his erratic behaviour,” the eyewitness was quoted as saying, adding that doctors confirmed Andem dead on arrival at the hospital.
