The incident, which happened at about 7pm on Thursday, took place at the Onitsha Unit of the Anambra State Command of the Commission.
The deceased, Mr Emeka Ojei, a Senior Road Marshal Assistant, was said to have incurred the wrath of his colleagues, who took his life for insisting that he would expose certain corrupt practices one of them indulged in.
According to a staff of the Commission, who spoke on condition of anonymity, the deceased had compiled corruption cases against one of the officers who killed him and was getting ready to go and submit them at the Benin office of the Commission when the official, indicted by his report, started appealing to him not to submit the report but he refused.
The FRSC official said, “Emeka is one of the officers privileged to be working on a report on a corruption case to be sent to the headquarters in Benin.
The FRSC official said, “Emeka is one of the officers privileged to be working on a report on a corruption case to be sent to the headquarters in Benin. “As he was about going to deliver the report, one of his superiors called him back, insisting that he shouldn’t go to Benin with the report but he turned down the request.
“When his boss noticed that he was adamant, he engaged him in what looked like a fight. And as his boss held him and was trying to take away his mobile phone from him, another officer came into the office and joined in the squabble, supporting the indicted officer”, the source stated further.
