An eyewitness told journalists that the gunmen, who rode in a Green Toyota Sienna vehicle, earlier accosted the victims before the attack.

 

He said when Awosike noticed that they were in military camouflage, he mistook them for genuine military personnel and asked the driver to stop the vehicle.

 

The eyewitness stated that it was at the point of inquiring why they were asking them to stop when the gunmen opened fire at close range and killed the three policemen before taking the oil mogul away to an unknown destination.
