According to him, “I applaud the Edo State Police Command under the leadership of Mr. Johnson Kokumo, for their steadfastness in ensuring that they trailed those suspected to have murdered Miss.

“While this is the first step in unraveling and bringing those culpable in the dastardly act to justice, we urge the police not to rest on their oars but to ensure diligent and thorough investigation. We are also confident that the just resolution of the matter would benefit from the Violence Against Persons Prohibition (VAPP) law that is in force in the state.”

“We commend the police force for the pace of the investigation and for their dedication to duty as this matter is close to our hearts. The Commissioner, who has proven his mettle overtime, also showed operational dexterity during the investigation of the kidnappers at Ogba zoo, in which some police officers were killed in cold blood. Hence, we are confident that there would be a fair denouncement on this matter.”
