Oyo State government says it will work with the Police to investigate the killing of a secondary school student by stray bullet from a police gun at Alakia area of Ibadan, the state capital.

This is to ensure that justice is served, the state government.

The government described the incident which happened Tuesday morning while the boy was bein taking to his school to write her WAEC examination as sad, shocking and painful.

The state government then commiserated with the parents and relations of the secondary school boy.

Government said the incident was totally avoidable, noting how what started as a traffic offence, with the father of the slain boy driving against traffic, resulted in the loss of an innocent life.

It charged residents to remain calm as the police and the government handle the situation, while it also warned residents against breaking traffic rules.

The state government clarified that contrary to claims that the incident occurred while the police were chasing a suspected internet fraudster, the incident actually occurred during a routine operation against traffic infraction, carried out by men of the Oyo State Road Traffic Maintenance Authority (OYRTMA).

According to the government, OYRTMA officials in conjunction with a team from the police, embarked on the traffic operation on Alakia Old Road following complaints from residents over constant one-way traffic violations that have led to deaths and life-threatening injuries on the axis.

It explained that the backup from the police became imperative following assaults on OYRTMA officials and a recent killing of one official in Ibadan by a traffic offender.

The government maintained that the father of the slain boy drove a tinted black Honda Accord Car with registration number FST 639 JU against the traffic at around 7.30 a.m.

It noted that it was during an attempt to apprehend the traffic offender that a policeman, who is already being investigated by the Oyo State Police Command, allegedly aimed a shot at one of the tyres of the car, which missed the target.
