The case dates back to the tragic events of April 5, 2018, when armed robbers attacked five commercial banks in Offa, Kwara State.

The assault resulted in the deaths of over 30 individuals, including nine policemen.

Six suspects were initially arrested in connection with the robbery.

They included a deceased policeman, Michael Adikwu, and five others: Ayoade Akinnibosun, Azeez Salahudeen, Niyi Ogundiran, Ibikunle Ogunleye, and Adeola Abraham.

The trial officially commenced on November 11, 2018.

The surviving suspects face charges of criminal conspiracy, murder, and illegal possession of firearms.

Michael Adikwu died in police custody, while the remaining five have pleaded not guilty.

The nation now awaits the court’s final verdict on this significant case.
