Afolabi added that in the process of their arrests, other members of the robbery group escaped.
“There have been reports of the nefarious activities of armed robbers in some communities at Alapa town in Asa local government area.
“The robbers were fond of going around with dangerous weapons, attacking innocent people and dispossessing them of their belongings.
“One of such attacks took place last Saturday night. Some people were attacked with machetes and other dangerous weapons by the hoodlums who also carted away cash and other valuables belonging to the victim.“
