colleague in Bauchi state.

killed by an enraged junior officer.
Though details of the incident were still sketchy, police sources told
Daily Times that the junior officer went berserk during a minor
disagreement and shot his superior point black.
The source said that the trigger-happy junior officer fired five round
of ammunition which killed the deceased on the spot.
After killing his boss, the junior officer whose identity couldn't be
immediately ascertained, reported himself to the nearest police
station and was immediately arrested and detain.
The death of the Eza, who hailed from Erowha in Isoko South Local
Government Area of Delta state, sources said came as a rude shock to
staffers of Government House Asaba and the state governor who the
source said had expressed great grief and sadness.
In could be recalled Eza and his orderly were shot in the leg few
years ago when hoodlums attacked the convoy of Uduaghan along the
Benin-Warri highway at Oghara, headquarters of Ethiope West Local
Government Area of the state.
