Leading a team of armed policemen to the attack site, the police chiefs vowed to intensify security efforts to make Kogi State unsafe for criminals.

In a statement issued by Kogi State Police Public Relations Officer, SP William Ovye, in Lokoja, Dantawaye explained the police’s approach:

“The visit to the crime scenes was to assess the situation and deploy additional security assets for a bush-combing operation, ensuring no safe haven for the kidnappers.”

AIG Zubairu also held meetings with Divisional Police Officers (DPOs) and other security stakeholders, focusing on proactive crime prevention strategies. He called on residents to remain calm, assuring them that security agencies are working tirelessly to rescue the victims and dismantle criminal hideouts.
