The Gombe Command has expressed shock and dismay at the heinous crime and has pledged to do everything in its power to bring the perpetrators to justice.

” We urge anyone with information that could lead us in our investigation to come forward and give us the information.” said ASP Abubakar.
Meanwhile, the Command is urging residents to remain calm and vigilant and to report any suspicious activities of individuals to the Police.

” Finally, the Command wishes
the general public to know that the movement restriction earlier imposed is still in place and also the Okada and Keke Napep riders are encouraged to help the Police with information. Anybody who violates this order will face the full wrath of the law.
