The Commissioner of Police Mr. Mohammed Katsina, told Expdonaloaded blog Today that his men moved to the scene due to the sensitivity of the matter.
“We have to act on our reliable intelligence to go beyond our boundary to take care of the situation. It is a coordinated effort of my ambush squad, the anti-kidnapping squad, Skynet Squad as well as officers and men of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad(SARS).
“You may describe these suspects as unrepentant economic sabotage, but I describe them as glutinous vultures scavenging on our national pride. You are all aware of the situation we are facing today due to fuel scarcity; this is one of the many areas being punctured by these miscreants to deny members of the public and by extension, the Federal Government’s efforts to providing enough fuel for the citizens,” Katsina said.
