Twelve Android phones and other valuable items used in perpetrating criminal activities were recovered from the suspects. The police command is currently investigating the matter and will charge the suspects to court upon completion of the investigation.


Commissioner of Police, CP Emmanuel Ado, commended the operatives for their commitment and charged them to sustain the tempo. He reiterated the Command's determination to keep criminal elements in check and ensure Yobe State remains unsafe for criminals.


The CP also cautioned hotel operators against providing safe spaces for criminals, warning that anyone found aiding or harboring suspects will face legal consequences.
