BREAKING: Gunmen attack Apostle Suleman's convoy, kill three policemen

Gunmen on Friday attacked the convoy of Apostle Johnson Suleman along the Benin Auchi Road, Edo State, and allegedly killed seven persons including three policemen

“He was returning to Auchi when the gunmen attacked him along Sabingida down to Warake area, and Auchi shares direct boundary with Warake. So, he had passed Warake and was entering the boundaries of Auchi when the attack happened.”

A security expert, Dickson Osajie, who condemned the lack of security in the state, said the attack happened in broad daylight. He said, “They attacked him ; seven people including a policeman were killed. The country is not safe; our can people move around with guns at the express and they are not detected. It is a disturbing situation.”

Contacted, the State Police Public Relations Officer, Chuidi Nwabuzor, said, “I just heard about it few seconds ago; but I cannot confirm yet. Let me hear from the Divisional Police Officer covering that area.”All rights reserved.
