Attack On Vice President Sambo's Home: Police Arrests Two Suspects




Two of the three people believed to have attacked the Zaria residence of Vice President Muhammad Namadi Sambo were apprehended by the police on Monday at the Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital (ABUTH), Shika in Zaria.


Confirming the arrest yesterday, acting public relations officer of the Kaduna State Police Command, DSP Abubakar Balteh, said it was nemesis that caught up with the attackers.


An impeccable source at the ABUTH said the attackers were apprehended when they took one of their wounded to the hospital for treatment of a gunshot.

“Two of them (attackers) came to the hospital with a police escort. They were admitted based on the report that the injured person was shot by armed robbers. Unfortunately for them, he was given a bed by the side of the mobile policeman who sustained gunshot injury during the attack on the VP’s house. The policeman immediately recognized him as one of the attackers and he alerted his colleagues and that was how they were apprehended,” the hospital source said.
