I want my husband back dead or alive – Wife of Lagos cop‘killed’ by militants

Acting Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris
Monday, May 1, 2016 was not just a sad day for the family of 40-year-old Haruna Odude. For his wife, Iyabo, and five children, it was the most devastating day.

In Owutu area of Ikorodu, an area of Lagos where the activities of militants make the daily duty of policemen a matter of life and death, Iyabo said she always said a silent word of prayer for Haruna whenever he left the house for work at the Owutu Police Division.


But her worst nightmare came true that Saturday when words filtered in that her husband, who had left for his overnight patrol ,had gone missing after his team was attacked by a group of militants.
It has been two months since Haruna went missing, but Iyabo, his wife of 13 years has never been invited by police authorities or given any official explanation about what might have happened to her husband.
Iyabo, a nurse, said her last two children – a set of twins – celebrated their first year birthday just a few days before their father went missing.
“When my husband went missing, anytime I went to his station to try and get any information, his superiors would hide from me. I was desperate, I just needed information, any information that could show they are making any kind of effort to find him, but it was like they have forgotten about him, Iyabo told our correspondent.
