Timilehin, Boy Slain By Police Buried

During the burial. 

Tears flowed freely at Ijede Cemetery, Ikorodu, Lagos as family members and sympathisers gathered to bury the remains of Timilehin Ebun, a nine-year-old boy killed by a police bullet.

Timilehin and members of his immediate family were on their way to their Ikorodu home when a stray bullet pierced through his father’s vehicle and killed him.

Earlier, the relatives had collected Timilehin’s corpse at Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, where an autopsy was performed on it.

Symapthisers at the funeral, which started around 3pm burst into tears when the deceased’s coffin was opened for them to see.
