Parading the suspects in Abuja on Tuesday, the Force PRO, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said the development was part of the vision of the inspector-general of police, IGP Kayode Egbetokun, to have a Police Force that is professionally competent and well-positioned for appropriate and adequate response to the dynamics of crimes and criminality in the contemporary society.

One of such cases was that of Valentine Igbinevbo, who reported at the Ugbowo Divisional Police Headquarters, Edo State, that his Mercedes Benz C350 car with Registration No: KWL 195 KC was snatched by two armed men and his friend named Iyobo Ighodaro, 21, and was kidnapped in the process.

The Force PRO said police operatives immediately swung into action and trailed the hoodlums to their hideout in Egor where a gun duel ensued which led to the death of one of the kidnappers and the kidnapped victim was rescued unhurt.

Also, The IGP Special Task Force on Petroleum and Illegal Bunkering (IGP-STFPIB), in collaboration with operatives of the Rivers State Command discovered, raided, and destroyed a storage facility in Trans Amadi, Rivers State used for dealing and processing illegally acquired crude oil.
