“Offa bank robbers must be arrested and brought to justice” – Saraki
Senate president, Bukola Saraki has reacted to the brutal armed robbery attack on several banks in Offa, Kwara state.
A coordinated attack by armed robbers led to the deaths of at least ten persons on Thursday.
Saraki described the attack as “savage” and “a despicable act committed by cruel individuals”.
“Make no mistake, there will never be any valid grounds or rationale behind such violence that has left many families without their loved ones – and one more community in grief and shock,” he said.
Saraki added that he had spoken with state governor Abdulfattah Ahmed to ensure that the perpetrators of the heinous crime are caught and brought to justice.
“Moving forward, it is also important that we all work together to ensure that this does not reoccur. We all must co-operate at various levels to increase the security of our communities.
“We’ll ensure everyone who planned or carried out this attack faces the full wrath of the law,” Saraki said.
