SSS press release
Recall that in the early hours of 4th May, 2012, the Principal Private Secretary (PPS) to the Edo State Governor, Olaitan OYERINDE (Comrade) was killed by unknown gunmen at his residence located at No. 65, 2nd Ugbor Road, GRA Benin city.
2. In addition to the suspects earlier arrested by the police in connection with the above killing, the following six (6) principal suspects have been apprehended by this Service:

ii. Raymond Onajite ORIGBO;
iii. Chikezie EDEH.
iv. Saidu YAKUBU (a.k.a Imam);

I can bet you SSS are only fronting these criminals as cover to the real culprits. The story dont really add up. I mean the chap killed isnt really a commoner for these lightly armed thugs to overcome his own security. Look at the quality of their guns! These guys are cellphone thieves...but sadly they would have to pay for some else 's crime.
