The senator said that some officials of Nigeria’s secret police, State Security Service (SSS), were among those killed by the gunmen. He did not give details of their identity.
It is not clear, for now, if the two officers who were confirmed dead by the police, were the SSS officials.
“I don’t have that information,” Mr Ikenga said, when asked to confirm the killing of the SSS officers.
