Can you just imagine nonsense.. A prime suspect in a murder case was caught and some people are pressuring you to release him,and you have not arrested such people or known yet that they are directly or indirectly involved in the murder.....this is exactly why our country would never and ever develop, since the law is made for some people and police no longer knows their work.... No wonder some people would always call Nigeria a zoo republic
