\u201cI did show you the four killers, kidnappers, and robbers that went and killed Brigadier-General Uwe Harrod, retired. Today, I will show you the organiser of the killing and the robbery.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs well as we have recovered the general\u2019s gun that was with him. We have recovered the wristwatch of the general and the wife\u2019s jewellery which they stole from the general\u2019s house.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe organiser is here and we have arrested him. He is the organiser. He was in prison and during the Kuje Correctional Centre attack. He escaped.<\/p>\n
\u201cInstead of him to repent, he continued with more audacity. We arrested him in Kano where he was trying to exit the country.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe recovered (these) drugs in his residence. So, that\u2019s what they take and they will continue to be high.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
