Residents of Nasarawa
State were still in shock
yesterday over the
discovery of the bodies of
two bankers and their
driver.
They were allegedly
ambushed by suspected Ombatse boys, who took them
to the bush, killed them, set them ablaze with their car
and buried them with the car by the riverside.
The incident happened at Tudun Adabu in Obi Local
Government.
The Police Command has arrested 14 suspects in
connection with the murder.
The deceased bankers are Alhaji Hassan Gidado, who
was the managing director of the Police Microfinance
Bank, and Mr. Tunde Banwo.
The police, at a news conference on Monday, said after
the the bodies were exhumed, they were deposited at
the Dalhatu Araf Specialist Hospital in Lafia.
It was gathered that the two top bankers, who lived in
Abuja, were in Lafia for the wedding of a child of the
police commissioner-in-charge of Cooperative.
Police Commissioner Umar Shehu said the suspected
killers would soon be taken to court. He assured
residents that measures had been taken to curb the
activities of the outlawed Ombatse group.
