Residents of Nasarawa State were still in shock yesterday over the discovery of the bodies of two bankers and their driver.
They were allegedly ambushed by suspected Ombatse boys, who took them to the bush, killed them, set them ablaze with their car and buried them with the car by the riverside.
The incident happened at Tudun Adabu in Obi Local Government.



The Police Command has arrested 14 suspects in connection with the murder.
The deceased bankers are Alhaji Hassan Gidado, who was the managing director of the Police Microfinance Bank, and Mr. Tunde Banwo.
The police, at a news conference on Monday, said after the the bodies were exhumed, they were deposited at the Dalhatu Araf Specialist Hospital in Lafia.
It was gathered that the two top bankers, who lived in Abuja, were in Lafia for the wedding of a child of the police commissioner-in-charge of Cooperative.
Police Commissioner Umar Shehu said the suspected killers would soon be taken to court. He assured residents that measures had been taken to curb the activities of the outlawed Ombatse group.

This is a sect that ambushed& murdered tens of security operatives& everyone went on as if ordinary,reckless pple were killed,how wud dey not get emboldened to carry out more atrocious deeds.D day ombatse was allowed to go away wt those murders and a mystic fame built on their dreadful insanity was d day free reign was given to dem to wreac havoc on whoever crosses their territory.Its an abysmal failure of leadership at d centre whc some wud use d toga of ethnicity to disguise from,others are evn threatening fire& brimstone if pple question incompetence& directionlessness.Lives are being lost right,left& centre frm inability to properly chart a security masterplan& pple claim its because some want to distract d man at d top.Presidents are elected to deal effectively wt crisis,not to gallivant round d world,attend conferences& receive dignitaries in d comfort of their mansions;if d latter were to b d case den their wudnt b d need to elect any leader in d first place.
