Three policemen were killed by suspected gunmen when the convoy of Nasarawa state deputy governor, Dr. Emmanuel Akabe ran into the assailants around Gako hill in Nasarawa Eggon local government on Tuesday, August 20th.

The incident which also claimed the life of a civilian driver was said to have happened around 8pm as the deputy governor was heading to Abuja for the swearing-in of ministers scheduled to take place on Wednesday, August 21st.According to reports, when the escort commander was informed that there were suspected gunmen on the road, he stopped the convoy and took two other mobile police officers with him alongside the civilian driver to fend off the gunmen and open the road.

However, upon hearing gunshots from an oncoming Hilux van the gunmen took cover and ambushed the police officers and the driver killing all four. The rifles of the officers were also said to be taken away by the assailants.

The bodies of the slain policemen and their driver have since been deposited at the Dalhatu Araf Specialist Hospital in Lafia.

  2. I’ve learned a number of important things by means of your post. I’d personally also like to convey that there may be a situation where you will get a loan and never need a co-signer such as a Government Student Aid Loan. But if you are getting a loan through a traditional banker then you need to be ready to have a cosigner ready to enable you to. The lenders will certainly base any decision on a few issues but the biggest will be your credit standing. There are some loan companies that will in addition look at your job history and come to a decision based on that but in many instances it will hinge on your score.
