Police in Oyo state has paraded 16 year old Umaru Mohammed who is one of the two suspected herdsmen arrested for killing a community youth leader in Onidundun Village.
The suspects were paraded alongside 31 other suspected criminals at the Oyo State Police Command Headquarters, Eleyele, Ibadan.
Speaking with journalists, one of the suspects, 16 year old Umaru said that he hasn’t been involved in this kind of crime before but was lured into the attempt to kidnap and kill by his people, who are now currently at large. He said he was threatened to cooperate with him or be dealt with.
Oyo state Commissioner of Police, Ngozi Onadeko told newsmen that Umaru and his syndicate laid ambush for one Taofek Olaide and Ysusf Taiwo when they came to buy cows from them, which was an initial ploy they hatched to lure the unsuspecting men to their net.
