The Nigerian police have reacted to a viral video where some men alleged to be its personnel were caught killing an unarmed civilian.
According to the police, the security officers captured in the video were from a “sister security agency”, and not from the police.
A video was being circulated on Twitter and Facebook that showed two armed security officers dragging an unarmed young man through the street, before firing at him at close range.
The man went down on the floor and appeared to have died instantly.
