Police arrest suspected killer of Temitope Sugar

The police have said that they have arrested one person in connection with the killing of a member of the House of Representative, Temitope Olatoye Sugar.
‘Nigerian Tribune’ reports that the General of Police in Zone Eleven, Leye Oyebade and Commissioner of Police in Oyo State, Shina Olukolu, on Monday, confirmed this while noting that six guns, nine live cartridges, axe, knives and other miscellaneous items had also been recovered.
The paper, however, noted that the officers said Sugar’s death was in no way connected with the elections that took place on the day he was killed.
“We have got a suspect but we can’t reveal all the details. I was at the University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan with the Oyo State Commissioner of Police on Saturday. The Chief Medical Director of the UCH was also with us. From that point, we picked up the investigation. I want to assure members of the public that the IGP’s mandate is that no stone should be left unturned in unravelling the cause of the incident,” the AIG was quoted as saying.
