OK
So sad indeed, RIP.
Like a scene in James Hadley Chase. If the robbers had succeeded in getting the Bullion van, how would they get the van safe open. The job must be mastereminded by an inside man who knew before hand where the bullion van and the police escort were heading
The difficulty in Nigeria is driving people to armed robbery
Now 4 lives are lost
It’s well
The level of insecurity is so high that billion vans have become a tragedy. Pathetic
