Four suspected kidnappers involved in the killing of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) officer, Segun Ayebulu, have been arrested in Ekiti State.
The suspects were arrested on Tuesday, September 13, at Irele Ekiti by local hunters and Ajoni community vigilante group, code-named Operation Eradicating Bandits at the Borders of Rural Ajoni Communities (Operation EBBORAC).
Late Ayebulu was travelling with three of his relatives along the Oke-Ako/Irele Road when they were ambushed by gunmen on September 3.
He was said to be on his way to his hometown in Ogbe, Yagba West Local Government Area of Kogi State, when the incident happened.
The Chairman, Ajoni LCDA, Michael Ogungbemi, who confirmed the arrest, said the suspects had confessed they were responsible for the killing of the NSCDC officer and the kidnap of the three relatives.
