Osun State Police today announced that the policeman who was responsible for the death of two kids in Ilesa Osun State last week has been dealt with and will be dismissed by the force.
The Osun State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Kola Sodipo, made the announcement in the presence of the visiting Inspector General of Police (IGP), Solomon Arase, at the insistence of Gov Rauf Aregbesola.
The Governor while receiving the IGP said the incident nearly degenerated to a civil unrest in the state.
The governor said such incident must be seen to be dealt with judicially in order to allay fears of citizens who might conclude that the tragedy would be covered up.
Sodipo told both the IG and Gov. Aregbesola that immediately the kids were killed owing to alleged recklessness of the police man he was arrested and investigated.
He assured that he has been found guilty and summarily dismissed.
