Presenting a situation report from Satellite Division, Lagos police spokesman, DSP Bala Elkana, disclosed that on Saturday, April 20, 2019, officers arrested “two male suspects who gave their names as Friday Emmanuel, 21 and Obiora Nwabueze, 29, at Mile-2-under-the-bridge while at each other’s throat”.
