Commending the operatives, Emenari praised their swift response, courage and professionalism, while reassuring residents of the command’s commitment to safeguarding lives and property, particularly during the festive season.


He added that patrols, stop-and-search operations and intelligence-led policing had been intensified across strategic locations in the state, urging residents to remain vigilant and report suspicious activities promptly.


Police said efforts were ongoing to track down and arrest the fleeing suspects.
