One abductor was neutralized, two were arrested, named Ibrahim Shehu 40 years old and Mohammad Lawal 25 years old; while the remaining two escaped with gunshot wounds. One AK-47 rifle and criminal charms were recovered. The injured suspects who were later apprehended succumbed to their injuries en route to the hospital.

“The Kwara State Police Command commends the bravery and swift response of its officers, as well as the dedication of the local hunters and vigilante group who played a crucial role in the operation. Their collective efforts continue to enhance security and ensure the safety of residents.

“Efforts are ongoing to apprehend other fleeing suspects and recover more firearms. The Commissioner of Police urges the public to remain vigilant and report suspicious activities.”
