Children of a woman, Comfort Idongesit Udoh, who was murdered by a trigger-happy police officer, Corporal Museliu Aremu, while demanding bribe from the woman’s husband in Lagos, western Nigeria, last year.

The Lagos State Police Commissioner, Mr. Owoseni Fatai, who made the presentation on behalf of the Inspector General, Mr. Solomon Arase, said the

errant officer has already been dismissed and would face prosecution.

According to Owoseni, the scholarship is available for the children up to the level of education covered by the Police Scholarship Foundation for children of indigent police officers.

“For now, it covers up to secondary school level and the Scholarship Trust Fund is expected to cover higher level education, subsequently,” said.
