In a classical case of a house dividing against itself, a policeman has shot one of his open allegedly because of a woman. Bitrus Andrew, s police corporal, yesterday killed one Olosuji Elegbede, an assistant superintendent, in Gashua town in Yobe state over a quarrel caused by a girl friend.
According yo reports, the incident occurred at about 9:05am after all the efforts by a divisional police officer to resolve the issue failed. A witness said the police officer popularly known as Kwaba was bitter that his superior officer snatched a girl he has been with for the past eight years.
He said that the junior officer was not happy that the divisional police officer rather than tell the assistant superintendent to leave the lady for him warned him that it is a disrespectful act to struggle with his superior officer over a woman. "The corporal picked up his rifle and shot the officer five times on his chest and he dropped down and was taken to a hospital where he was confirmed dead", the witness said.
Another witness said corporal Bitrus has been with the lady for over eight years while the other officer was just posted to the division. "You know how ladies behave, the guy was a superior officer and he had a car so she forgot all the good times Bitrus had with her for over eight years and started going out with Olosuji", he said.
