The suspects, Faruk Umar (27) and Umar Mohammed (23), both from Ogbomosho Road in Chanchaga Local Government Area of the state, were trailed and arrested by a team of policemen attached to ‘A’ Division on a tip-off.
A man, Abubakar Manta of Sabo Nasarawa area of Chanchaga, reported to the police on February 13, 2019 that he was robbed of his N300,000 while on his way to the bank to make a deposit.
According to him, four hoodlums attacked him by the AYM Filling Station, Bosso and made away with his N300,000 and one Itel P3 handset valued at N36,000.
