Police spokesperson Frank Mba said the suspects were arrested after being linked to a separate case of armed robbery and kidnapping

On March 4, a team that was investigating an armed robbery attack first arrested Mr Abubakar, Mr Mba said. He then led officers to two other members of the gang, Messrs Usman and Mazaje, in Benin, Edo State. A cache of ammunition was subsequently recovered before Mr Adamu was picked up in Akure.

Following physical and forensic evidence allegedly linking the suspects to Mrs Olakunrin’s murder, homicide detectives went further to conduct additional identification probe on April 8, during which a survivor of the attack identified the suspects, police said. “The survivor gave a clear description of the roles each of the identified suspects played in the killing,” police said.

The suspects then allegedly “voluntarily offered a no-holds-barred confession” of their roles in Mrs Olakunrin’s murder. Detectives now believed at least eight men took part in the murder, and they have their operational base across the Southwest and Edo State. They have also been linked to other active cases of armed robbery, kidnapping and vandalism
