Ekiti Bank Robbers Will Be Apprehended Soon – CP Dare

Ekiti State Police Commissioner, Ogundare Dare, has vowed to apprehend the perpetrators of a broad daylight bank robbery in Ikere-Ekiti on Wednesday.

In a press release late Wednesday via the command X account, Dare said he expressed “displeasure over the ugly incident” and has ordered a full-scale investigation to “ensure the perpetrators are trailed, arrested and brought to book.”

The PUNCH reported Wednesday evening that three people were feared to have been killed in armed robbery attacks on two new-generation banks in Ikere-Ekiti, Ekiti State.

Sources, who said the armed robbers struck at about 4.30 p.m., said that they blew the doors of the banks with dynamite and escaped with an undisclosed amount of money.

A source, who said that he sighted a blood-soaked, lifeless body around the gate of one of the banks, said that he learned that two others were killed by the robbers in another location in the town.
