The arrested men were taken to Funbi-Fagun police station before being transferred to the police headquarters in Akure in their truck. One of the suspects, Abdulahi Sheriff, said that they took off from Birnin- Kebbi to seek greener pasture in the state, saying they were farmers and not member of the Boko Haram sect.
