On Monday, armed robbers invaded the residence of
Somtochukwu, popularly known as Sommie, at Kamtape area of Abuja, the nation’s
capital.

She reportedly jumped from her apartment in the four-storey
building during the armed robbery incident.

Sommie and the security guard, who was injured during the
incident, died in the hospital.

In a statement on Tuesday, Josephine Adeh, FCT police
spokesperson, said Adewale has ordered the deployment of intelligence assets to
identify the armed robbers.

The FCT police commissioner commiserated with the families,
friends, and colleagues of Sommie over her loss.

“Describing the incident as a cruel and senseless act that
has no place in a sane society, the Commissioner of Police assured that the
Command remains fully committed to ensuring that justice is served,” the
statement reads.

“To this end, he has ordered a discreet and comprehensive
investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident.

“He further directed the deployment of intelligence and
operational assets to identify, track, and apprehend those responsible for this
heinous crime.

“While assuring residents of the Command’s unwavering
commitment to public safety and the prevention of similar occurrences, the CP
called on members of the public to support ongoing investigations by providing
timely and useful information to the Police.

“He charged all FCT residents to always ensure they raise
prompt alarm in every suspicious situation with a view to denying criminal
elements in our society, opportunity to carry out their evil plans.”
