Their arrest came after the killing of three persons, including a Police Officer, who had come to maintain peace and prevent the forceful takeover of lands in the troubled community.
Secretary to the Orelade/Ladera Royal Family of Gberigbe land Olayiwola Akanmu, told The Nation that a combined force of land grabbers and cultists started unleashing terror on the community after the withdrawal of some policemen, who had been keeping watch in the community since June following a signal from Abuja.
Akanmu also said that the absence of the police officers opened doors to armed robbers, who have been terrorizing the area since June.
