The video captures a man reacting to the footage of the fatal shooting of 28-year-old musician Mene Ogidi in Delta State.
In the clip, the man explicitly disagreed with Nigerians calling for justice for the deceased, arguing that Ogidi was far from innocent.
“Mene was caught with a gun,” he claimed, suggesting that the public’s sympathy was misplaced.
The video has since drawn mixed reactions across social media, with many debating the man’s perspective versus the official police report.

The original incident took place on Sunday, April 26, 2026, after operatives from the Effurun Area Command intercepted Ogidi, who was allegedly attempting to send a parcel containing a Beretta pistol and ammunition.
During the arrest, ASP Nuhu Usman reportedly fired his weapon, resulting in the musician’s death.
Despite the man’s claims in the viral video, the police authorities have taken decisive action against the officers involved.
On Wednesday, Force Public Relations Officer DCP Anthony Placid issued a statement confirming that the Inspector-General of Police had approved the dismissal and criminal prosecution of the officers.
The statement noted that this decision followed “the conclusion of internal disciplinary reviews” regarding the April 26, 2026, shooting.
