front of the UPS office on the Gbagada Express way on Thursday
September 20th. He died early this morning at a
hospital in Lagos. Ugo just got married last Saturday September 15th, 2012.
Details as to what really happened that Thursday night are sketchy but
according to friends of the late businessman, he was at the
expressway with another friend trying to flag down a taxi around 9 at
night, when policemen pulled up and shot him twice in the chest at
close range.
They said he was not resisting arrest, he wasn't arguing with the
police, he was not asked to identify himself, he was just standing
there with a friend and got killed for no reason. Sounds crazy to me!
The IG of police has said the men that killed the newly married man
were not policemen...but they were wearing police uniform, so who were
they?
This is truly sad, and quite unfortunate! I can't even imagine what
his wife would be going through now. Hopefully, Ugo's family will get
justice for this senseless killing!
