This was disclosed by the Police, who paraded Olaro at the Police Officers Mess Alagbaka, Akure, where he made the confessional statements.

The Police stated that efforts were being made to apprehend his accomplices now at large and the suspect will be prosecuted before the Court for conspiracy, armed robbery and murder under the Criminal Law of the State after the conclusion of investigations by the Police.
