Daredevil armed robbers storm supermarket, kill CBN staff, 3 other customers

One Man Village near Mararaba in Nasarawa State was thrown into confusion when suspected armed robbers stormed a popular Abdullahi Supermarket killing four customers, including a staff of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

The CBN staff was identified through his Identity Card as Daniel Adefemi Okunade placed on his body, reports The Nation.

Findings revealed that Okunade was shot in the head while trying to buy something and he died instantly.

Three others gruesomely murdered along with him could not be identified.

An eyewitness account said that the robbery operation lasted less than two minutes during which the CBN staff, who is said to be the choirmaster of the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) also in One Man Village, was gunned down.

He was said to have had a stopover at the supermarket to buy bread for his family when the robbers found their way into the ever-busy store and took the lives of the four customers.

His Toyota Venza Car parked outside the supermarket was not touched by the men of the underworld.

The late Okunade was said to be returning from work when he met his untimely death at the hands of the suspected robbers.

At the time of this report, the atmosphere in the area was tense as people kept trooping into the supermarket to identify the robbery victims.

Meanwhile, police operatives from New Nyayan Divisional Police Station have moved the corpses of the robbery victims to the Mararaba Medical Center mortuary in Mararaba.

However, hundreds of sympathizers, including church members, have been trooping to the house of the late CBN staff to sympathize with his family.

No information has yet been made public by the police in Nasarawa State and the FCT on the incident.
