It was unclear if Jimoh Isiaq was among the young Nigerians protesting against police brutality before he was shot. He was rushed to Bowen University Teaching Hospital where he died while receiving treatment.
But pictures shared on Twitter showed him standing by the roadside, many metres away from the policemen. He was unarmed.
His bloodied corpse has since been buried.
