A young girl's post on social media has sparked controversy, as the video she shared features a man believed to be her late father who was a police officer.

Many of the responses to the post have been negative, with some people questioning why the girl is praying for her father to rest in peace when many people believe that police officers are responsible for widespread violence and brutality in Nigeria.

Some people have expressed sympathy for the girl and her family, but others have argued that the girl's prayers are misplaced.
