NYSC

The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command says it is investigating the alleged killing of a female National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member, Linda Igwetu by a policeman in Abuja on Wednesday.

Command spokesman, DSP Anjuguri Manzah, said this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) via a text message on Thursday in Abuja.

According to report, Igwetu, who was allegedly shot in the early hours of Wednesday by a police officer, was rushed to the Garki Hospital where she died.

It was also reported that the hospital allegedly refused to treat the deceased unless a police report was presented to them, an allegation which the hospital denied.

The deceased was among corps members scheduled to pass out on Thursday before she met her untimely death.
