Some men of the underworld incurred the wrath of the state government at the weekend by unflinching damages on the area commander’s office in Okehi LG, central senatorial district with a lethal weapon, suspected to be improvised bomb.

A statement issued by the commissioner for Information and Communications in the state, Kingsley Fanwo, said the men of the underworld killed one person at the station before their operation was foiled by security agents.

Overwhelmed by the development, the state government has vowed to ensure that the fleeing criminals are apprehended and brought to justice.

According to Fanwo, the state governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, has directed the office of the State Security Adviser to mobilise adequate security personnel and equipment to the affected area to ensure watertight security and restore confidence in the citizens.
