About five police officers stationed at the bank premises fled during the operation, with three of them removing their uniforms in order not to be identified as security operatives by the enemies of state.
According to the eyewitness, the bandits who operated in a blue Golf car had been around the bank’s neighbourhood for over an hour before the arrival of their target who came to the bank in a commercial tricycle popularly known as Keke Napep.

Quote:“THREE OF THEM SAT CLOSE TO MY SHOP FOR HOURS, BEFORE A MAN WAS COMING TOWARDS THE BANK AND THEY QUICKLY WALKED TOWARDS THE MAN (VICTIM) WHO CARRIED A BLACK BAGCO BAG OF MONEY AND STARTED DRAGGING THE BAG WITH HIM AT GUN POINT WHILE URGING HIM TO RELEASE THE BAG.
“WE SAW THEM DRAGGING THE MONEY WITH THE MAN, I THOUGHT IT WAS ONE OF THE MOVIE SCENES, YOU KNOW THESE NOLLYWOOD PEOPLE DO USE ASABA VERY WELL FOR ACTING MOVIES.
“BUT BEFORE WE KNEW IT, THEY SHOT THE MAN. IT WAS AT THIS POINT THAT EVERYONE, INCLUDING THE POLICEMEN TOOK TO OUR HEEL WHILE THE VICTIM HELD ON THE BAG OF MONEY AND STRUGGLED INTO THE BANK WHERE HE FELL ON THE GROUND,” THE SOURCE SAID.
