Nigerian content creator and skitmaker Cater Efe has shared the story of how his father, a police officer, was killed by armed men dressed in military camouflage during a robbery in Ogun State years ago.
Efe during a livestream on Twitch explained that his father had just finished his police shift and chose to take a police van to the nearest bus stop close to their home.
On the way, the van was caught in a traffic jam caused by a robbery. Unaware that the men in military uniforms were criminals, his father and his colleagues got out to see what was happening.
The robbers immediately opened fire after recognizing the police officers.
The tragedy was made worse for Cater Efe because he saw footage of his father’s lifeless body on television, a clip that remains available online.

He said: “My dad had closed from duty and was heading home but he decided to enter the police van to the nearest bus-stop to our house, we were staying at Ogun State then. However, they ran into a gridlock and some men in military camouflage were robbing.
“My dad and his colleagues alighted from the van to check what was going but immediately the robbers spotted them in police uniform, they opened fire on them. My dad is on YouTube, I saw my dad’s lifeless body on the ground with police uniform. I am not stranger to pain. I have gone through a lot of pains. So, there is no pain that will make me stop my grind.”
