BREAKING NEWS: Angry Abuja Residents Burn Corpse Of Robber After Policeman’s Death
Some residents of Abaji area council of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) set the corpse of a suspected armed robber ablaze, on Thursday.
A police officer told Newsmen that the robbers first attacked the police station along Toto road where an inspector simply identified as Abila was shot dead.
He said the robbers, who alighted from two unmarked vehicles, started firing into the police station.
“In fact, it is God that saved me because when the robbers alighted from the vehicle, they started shooting into the police station. While I managed to escaped, an inspector who had earlier escaped later turned back because they had shot him on the chest,” he said.
Our reporter learnt that some members of the gang proceeded to the FirstBank branch located at the roundabout and started shooting sporadically.
One of the staff of the bank who spoke with our reporter on condition of anonymity, said the robbers could not succeed in accessing in the strong room where the bulk monies were kept but made away with some cash at the counter.
He said the robbers first shot a guard who ran into the toilet of the bank security house, before they walked into the bank.
Newsmen gathered that a combined team of police, soldiers, vigilante and hunters quickly mobilized to the scene and engaged the robbers in a fierce gun battle, which led to killing of two among them.
An angry mob seized one of the corpses and set it ablaze.
Meanwhile, the FCT police commissioner, CP Benneth Igweh, who later arrived at the scene in company of police officers, confirmed that two of the robbers were shot dead during exchange of gunfire with security operatives.
He said police anti-robbery squad and hunters had been deployed in the bush to trace the fleeing robbers, even as he commended the effort of the combined team of security agents for foiling the attack.
CP Igweh, however, commiserated the family of the deceased inspector.

‘’Today isn’t just Valentine’s Day.
It’s GOLDIE Day.
Thirteen years ago, Heaven gained a headliner and we lost a hurricane in Heels.
But Legends don’t die — they echo.
Every February 14th, while the world is drowning in roses and romance, I visit you with a wreath…..
and with words.
Because LOVE isn’t only for the living.
Love is memory.
Love is loyalty.
Love is saying your name out loud so it never fades.
GOLDIE!
You were glitter before glitter became a filter.
You were fearless before “soft life” became a hashtag.
You were Theatre.
You were colour.
You were audacity wrapped in melody.
I dropped flowers on your tomb today, but what I really dropped was gratitude.
For the music.
For the madness.
For the magic.
They tried to move on.
But I refuse to let your name become past tense.
So here’s my annual reminder to the world:
Stream her songs.
SAY HER NAME
Celebrate her light.
Because some stars don’t set…
They just change stages.
Forever your friend. Forever your megaphone.
P.S:
Heaven may have booked you for Eternity,
but Earth still dances to your Rhythm.
CONTINUE TO REST IN POWER, BIMPE SUSAN *GOLDIE* HARVEY’’
