The suspects, now in security custody, were said to have confessed that they attacked and severed Akinbode’s right hand because she refused to hand over to them an unspecified amount of cash and other valuables like handset in her handbag.
Security sources disclosed that the two suspects, identified as Ebi Jato and Weriye Aluwa, were arrested on Wednesday in the neighbouring Koroama community while trying to sell Akinbode’s mobile handset.
It was gathered that their arrest was effected by the Bayelsa State Special Security Task Force code named ‘Operation Doo Akpor.’

The suspects were said to have narrated in their confession that Akinbode was

in charge of a huge amount of money used by the NDUTH to pay blood donors at the Blood Bank section of the hospital on the night of the attack.

He said their arrest was made possible by the youths of the area who teamed up to fish them out.
