Nguroje stated that the accused was arrested following a complaint lodged at the Divisional Police Headquarters, Michika by the victims’ grandfather.
“Preliminary investigation reveals that the victim’s mother got separated from the suspect two months ago after they had a misunderstanding,” Nguroje added.
He said the suspect was arrested while trying to escape to Cameroon Republic and being investigated to ascertain reason behind the brutal murder of his own children.
He further said that the state Commissioner of Police, Sikiru Akande, who noted with sadness the inhuman act, directed the Deputy Commissioner of Police to take over investigation and ensure prosecution of the suspect to serve as a deterrent to others.
