The Commissioner of Police, Johnson Kokumo, disclosed the arrest to
journalists during a press briefing at the police headquarters in

He explained that while two of the suspects were arrested before
his arrival as the new commissioner, the five others were arrested on
Monday and Tuesday.
He also said that a mobile phone belonging to the deceased was recovered from one of the suspects.
Kokumo stated, “Before my coming on board there was this sad
incident about the gruesome killing of Prof. Paul Otasowie. Before my
assumption of duty on Monday, two suspects had been arrested in
connection with the matter.

“Between Monday and now (Wednesday) that I assumed duty, we
have been able to effect the arrest of five additional suspects. It may
interest you to know that the telephone belonging to the late professor
has been recovered from one of the suspects.

identify the telephone as being that of the late professor. So, we have
the suspects with us.”
The new police commissioner also paraded 31 other suspected criminals, arrested for various offences in the state.
He explained that the suspects included a gang of suspected
kidnappers whose plan to abduct a prominent citizen in the state was
foiled by police operatives.
According to him, a syndicate specialised in robbing fuel stations at night when sales to customers had ended were also nabbed.
Kukumo added that the command arrested five suspected highway robbers while four cut-to-size guns were recovered from them.
The commissioner promised to run an information driven police
command in partnership with sister agencies and different stakeholders
in the state, adding that “one vital information is better than 1,000 AK47 rifles”.
This he said was aimed at reducing crime to the “barest tolerable minimum”.
He also assured that the command under his leadership would ensure
zero tolerance for corruption and urged residents to report any unlawful
act by personnel of the command to him.
