Residents of Nasarawa State were still in shock 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 last Monday,
said after tthe 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.
