Gunmen kill two Nasarawa Police Officers.
Two officers of the Nasarawa State Command were killed by gunmen along the Akwanga-Keffi federal highway.

Confirming the incident, the Public Relations Officer of the command, Kennedy Idirisu, said the police officers were stationed at Kubere village, some few kilometres away from Gudi, along the Akwanga-Keffi highway, when the gunmen attacked them from the bush and killed two of them.

He said the command had deployed officers from the Special Anti-Robbery Squad and the mobile police detachment alongside the vigilance group for intense search for the assassins in the forest, adding that the forest has been an abode for criminals to perpertrate crimes.

He said the command would not be discouraged to discharged its duties and obligations by the tragic incident.

“The hoodlums, by this act, wanted to dampen the morale of the police as we approach the Yuletide so that they can have their way.

“However, the command remains resolute and determined to tackle crime head-on as the state Commissioner of Police, Muhammad Uba-Kura, has ordered the deployment of more officers and men to identified flash points across the state,” he said.

Idirisu therefore, urged members of the public to always provide useful information to the security agencies that would help combating crimes in the state.
