The village head of Dura-Du District in Jos South Local Government Area of Plateau State, Yakubu Rapp (52), and two other suspects on Friday voluntarily surrendered themselves to the police authorities in Jos a day after being declared wanted by the police over the disappearance of an Army General, Mohammed Idris Alkali (retd).
The other two are Youth Leader of the community, Matthew Rwang (aka Amesco, 27); and a tipper driver, Timothy Chuwang (26) were accompanied to the Jos police command by their lawyer, Mathew Godfree.
They were declared wanted over the mysterious disappearance of General Mohammed Idris Alkali, the former Army Chief of Administration who retired recently from the army.
“The three suspects voluntarily surrendered themselves to the police. If the police detain them, it will be difficult to get the others. But if they are granted bail, be assured that they will all appear before the police by next week,” a source familiar with the investigation told newsmen on Friday.
Alkali who was said to have disappeared in questionable circumstances was said to have retired a few weeks before he was declared missing on Monday, September 3, 2018, a day after gunmen swooped on Dura-Du and killed about 13 persons.
