“The kidnappers, according to first information report, were said to have opened fire at the sight of the marked vehicle and unfortunately shot the driver in the head, killing him instantly.

“The vehicle subsequently lost control and veered off the road.

“It took hours before the rescue team could locate the vehicle in the bush and evacuate the victims,” he said.

He said the Corps Marshal, Dr. Boboye Oyeyemi, had expressed his heartfelt sympathy to the family of the bereaved, the entire staff of the Corps and Nigeria for the death of the officer who lost his life in active service.

Kazeem said the incident has since been reported to the Nigeria Police Force for immediate investigation.
