Odunayo Alade, father of 14-year-old Kehinde Alade who was fatally shot by a police officer during a high-speed chase in Ibadan, Oyo State, has gone into hiding, grieving and calling for justice over the tragic loss of his son.
Kehinde, a secondary school student, was hit by a stray bullet allegedly fired by a police officer near Gbagi Market Road during a reckless pursuit of suspected internet fraudsters, locally known as ‘Yahoo boys.’ The shooting has since sparked outrage and protests across the city.
Recounting the incident through tears, Alade revealed that he was merely returning home with his children when the chaotic scene unfolded.
