The Kwara State Police Command has dismissed three officers involved in the killing of Abdulqoyyum Abdulyekeen Ishola, a student of Kwara State Polytechnic, Ilorin.

The officers, Inspector Abiodun Kayode, Inspector James Emmanuel, and Sergeant Oni Philip, are to face trial in court soon.

Ishola, a National Diploma student in Electronic Engineering, was shot dead on September 4, 2024, in the Government Reserved Area (GRA), Ilorin, while preparing for his sign-out ceremony.

His tragic death sparked outrage, with the Students’ Union Government and the polytechnic’s management demanding justice.

In a statement released by the command’s spokesperson, DSP Ejire Adeyemi Toun, the police confirmed the dismissal of the officers after they were found guilty of abandoning their duty post, engaging in corrupt practices, and unlawfully exercising authority.

“This decisive action highlights the unwavering commitment of the Inspector General of Police, IGP Kayode Egbetokun, to upholding justice, professionalism, and accountability across the Nigeria Police Force,” it said.

Commissioner of Police Victor Olaiya also expressed condolences to Ishola’s family, urging the public to remain calm and have confidence in the legal process.

“We share in their grief and remain committed to supporting them during this difficult time.

“We urge the public to trust the legal process as we remain dedicated to maintaining law and order within Kwara State,” the statement concluded.
