“The suspect is unable to give a satisfactory account of why he took the vehicle to the native doctor’s place for four days and switched off his phone.
“I advise all criminals to desist from perpetuating crime or leave Benue, as I am not ready to accommodate them.
“I will work tirelessly to ensure that the state is safe during the festive period and beyond.”
