The
Inspector-General of Police, Ag.IGP Ibrahim Idris, NPM, mni on June 30,
2016 deployed a Tactical Operation Unit, comprising the Police Mobile
Force, the Counter-Terrorism Unit with the back-up of an Air
Surveillance Team to flush out vandals and other criminal elements
operating in Arepo and Ibafor areas of Ogun State.
IGP
Ibrahim Idris said the deployment of the Unit to Arepo/Ibafor is to
ensure that normalcy returns to the areas in record time.
The
IGP also said the Nigeria Police Force will not watch any criminal
group or groups take the law into their hands, he therefore authorized
the Unit to deal decisively with anyone who constitutes himself an enemy
of the State, while asking law-abiding citizens of the area to return
home and go about their normal businesses.
It
would be recalled that Arepo and Ibafor in Ogun State have for sometimes
now been in the news for the wrong reasons due to anti-social
behaviours of miscreants.
In another development,
the Nigeria Police Force has arrested one Aloysius Ebiniko, said to be
the kingpin of the armed gang that abducted and murdered Col. Samaila
Inusa on March 27, 2016 in Kaduna, Kaduna State.
The
arrest of Aloysius Ebiniko was made possible as a result of a credible
technical intelligence employed by the Police after a confessional
statement of a member of the gang earlier arrested.
Aloysius
Ebiniko will soon be arraigned in court as those earlier arrested in
connection with the crime had been arraigned and are remanded in Prison
custody.
