He also stated that they were apprehended at the Tipper Garage, Onibudo, in the Ifo Local Government Area.
According to Yusuf, the State Commander of So-Safe Corps, Soji Ganzallo, had earlier given a marching order to his men, asking them to go after “the notorious four men, known to be specialised in robbing people of their belongings.”
It was learnt that the corps got information on Sunday that the gang had snatched a motorbike at gun point and escaped with it.
“The patrol team of the Corps in Adiyan-Alausa Onibudo Division was directed to go after the suspects and a few minutes later, they were successfully apprehended,” Yusuf said.
