It was gathered that Sedi, who was the youth leader of the APC in the area, was killed in Jattu on Wednesday.
The state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Johnson Kokumo, confirmed the incident stating that the incident was being investigated as a case of murder as the victim was not dispossessed of his belongings.
The police commissioner said, “We are investigating a murder case. We are not investigating armed robbery. Nobody was dispossessed in this particular case.
“So, what we are investigating is murder and not armed robbery. We have set things in motion. Our men are out there and I assure you that, with intelligence-led policing, we will soon bring the culprits to book.”
Obaseki, in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Communication Strategy, Crusoe Osagie, condemning the killing also ordered the arrest and prosecution of the killers.
