Mother of slain Delta musician alleges police killed two of her sons

The mother of 28-year-old musician, Oghenemine Ogidi, popularly known as OG Millan, has accused police officers of being responsible for the deaths of two of her sons in separate incidents.

Her allegation follows public outrage over the recent killing of her younger son in Delta State, an incident that has led to the detention and dismissal of Assistant Superintendent of Police, Nuhu Usman.

The grieving woman made the claim in a viral video captured during a condolence visit by activist Harrison Gwamnishu and his team. In the footage, she broke down in tears, recounting her losses.

“My two children were killed by the police. They first took my son in 2022, and now they have taken another one from me again,” she lamented.

Reports indicate that the latest incident occurred during an operation by officers attached to the Effurun Area Command in Delta State.

Police authorities confirmed that the officer involved has been taken into custody, stating that the operation was based on intelligence about a suspect allegedly in possession of a firearm.

According to the police, the victim, identified as Mene Ogidi, was found with a Beretta pistol and ammunition.

However, a video circulating online has raised further concerns, as it appears to show the victim already restrained and pleading before he was shot, contradicting aspects of the official account.
