Police condemns Shahid's attack in Abuja, orders operatives to hunt for sponsors through
00:09
killers of policemen.
00:12
As police confirms arrests of 97 suspects, IGP emplaces measures to seek justice for
00:19
slain corps.
00:22
The Nigeria Police Force has condemned vehemently a non-provoked attack by members of the proscribed
00:29
Islamic Movement of Nigeria, IAMN, commonly known as the Shahid Group, on police personnel
00:36
in Abuja on August 25, 2024.
00:42
The incident occurred at Wusei Junction by the traffic lights, where assailants targeted
00:48
a police checkpoint and descended heavily on policemen on duty.
00:54
The attackers, who were armed with matches, improvised explosive devices, knives and
01:03
other offensive weapons, embarked on several violent attacks, which left two police officers
01:11
dead instantly and three unconscious, currently receiving treatment in hospital.
01:19
Additionally, three police patrol vans were set ablaze during the attacks.
01:27
In line with the directive of the Inspector General of Police, IGP Uluka Ode Adi Uluakbetu
01:32
Kumpedi, NPM, FSPSP, the progressive efforts of police operatives have led to the arrests
01:42
of 97 suspects and the recovery of several weapons used during the attack.
01:50
The IGP has also reaffirmed the unalloyed zeal of the force to arrest other involved
01:56
persons and bring the killers to justice, emphasizing his commitment to maintaining
02:03
law and other unresisting all sorts of anarchy and unrest in any part of the country.
02:13
The unprovoked killings of police officers in the line of duty are highly outrageous
02:20
and unacceptable, as those who murdered these policemen have murdered peace.
02:29
As investigations unfold, the Nigerian police force is determined to uncover the full extent
02:36
of this attack and prevent future occurrences of such violence against police officers.
02:45
The Inspector General of Police offers heartfelt sympathies to the grieving families of the
02:52
fallen police officers, mourning their loss alongside them, and also wishes a speedy recovery
03:01
to those currently undergoing treatment, hoping for their swift return to full health.
03:09
The Nigerian police force therefore seeks the support and understanding of the general
03:14
public in its quest to maintain law and order, even in the face of extremist threats and
03:22
other forms of violent crimes across the country.
