A police officer dismissed for killing an 18-year-old admission seeker has been arraigned in court today. 

Sergeant Samuel Phillip shot dead the 18-year-old admission seeker, Monsura Ojuade in the Ijeshatedo area of Surulere, Lagos State. 

He was on Friday arraigned before a magistrate court in Lagos. 

You will recall that the police sergeant attached to the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, Yaba, allegedly shot dead Monsurat Ojuade around 11.30pm on September 11, 2021 in the Surulere area of the state. 

Monsurat was an admission seeker, who reportedly scored 236 in the 2021 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (UTME) and was awaiting admission, at the time she was killed. 

The victim was said to be in front of her parents’ house on Mogaji Street, Ijesha, Surulere, when some anti-robbery officers from the SCIID stormed the community.
