“The command is sad over the development. As we speak, the State CID, Panti,Yaba, is still interrogating the two men with a view to ascertaining their involvement.

“Four persons were arrested and are still under interrogation, while one of the sons of the leaders has been declared wanted.

“We want to state here that no matter the status of those involved in this crisis, we will prosecute them if found culpable,’’ he said.
