[00:00:00]Okay, let me just add that brother died in circumstances that also involved allegedly involved the police. We are going to investigate that.

[00:00:08]And that's another for another son of the same woman to also die in in similar circumstances is very very traumatizing. You understand? And you know uh let me go back to that issue of the video recording. Yeah.

[00:00:24]The video recording.

[00:00:26]If you look at ASP Nuhu Usman, the way he cocked the gun.

[00:00:31]That wasn't That couldn't have been his first time first time he was doing such a thing.

[00:00:35]Mhm. That couldn't have been.

[00:00:37]There was a And the way he was held There was a There was a callousness about him.

[00:00:41]>> It's You know, it looked like it it it was a pattern.

[00:00:45]It was a pattern. And that's very disturbing. And another thing again is that what were they What was he Why was he so much in a hurry to kill the young man? Mind you, he had he had first shot him at the at the A front of the park.

[00:00:58]Shot him on the leg. AFTER THIS YOUNG MAN HAD ALREADY BEEN TIED UP BY the park of executives.

[00:01:05]He was not He posed no danger to any person. EVEN NO DANGER TO to even himself.

[00:01:10]He still shot him.

[00:01:11]Why the hurry to kill the young man?

[00:01:13]What What were they What What was he or they trying to cover up? So, there's there's a bigger picture that we are we are yet to see. Well, you are a lawyer, a senior advocate of Nigeria as that. And a lot of legal questions will be asked as you have pointed out the IGP has made a very strong statement, said this will not just end at the administrative process.

[00:01:35]It is a crime. This is you know, it's going to see prosecution. But then there will be questions as to how the court processes will go. Would you say that this video evidence makes it clear enough uh you know, helps us quickly meet the threshold uh that will hold this man responsible for a homicide? Uh you know, one interesting thing about a trial, particularly criminal trials, you may have your facts. You understand? But the fact will speak well when you present them in the manner envisaged by the Evidence Act in the law courts. So, you have to gather your facts very well.

[00:02:09]You understand? And make sure that they are in admissible form. You understand?

[00:02:14]In this wise I am working with the NBA. The NBA president Afam Osigwe spoke to this issue yesterday. That's why he released a press statement. Even NBA will release a press statement. So, the NBA is going to be very well involved in this.

[00:02:27]Cuz the NBA president has directed the NBA branches in Warri, Udu, and Effurun.

[00:02:31]So, I will likely be leading that that team to get involved in this matter, work with the police, work with the Ministry of Justice, Delta State. In fact, as I'm leaving, I'm going to speak with the AG or Solicitor General of Delta State on how we are going to follow up this matter because investigation at this stage matters very well. So, we have to gather our evidence very very well. Good enough, we have video evidence. Good enough, we have the statement of the IGP. Even his video the video recording of of the the orderly room trial and the the dismissal of the police officers. We have all those evidence. But we have to prepare them in admissible form so that we don't go and encounter any issue of technicality in court. So, I may say that on the face of it it's a very clear court case. But we are going to make it clearer by the NBA and some of us getting directly involved. We We won't just leave it to the police like that. We won't. We won't.
