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.
