Eight gunmen, who allegedly dressed in police and military unicamouflage, at the weekend, burgled the home of the Special Assistant to President Goodluck Jonathan on Domestic Matters, Mr. Waripamowei Dudafa, in Yenagoa.
The gunmen were said to have.....
stormed the expansive compound, near the Okaka Estate in the Bayelsa State capital, at 7:30 pm, on Saturday.
They reportedly left at 12:15 am, after operating unhindered for five hours.
Some aides to Dudafa yesterday took reporters round the ransacked home.
The armed men, who reportedly, combed the politician’s cupboards and other vital areas in the building.
The three policemen guarding the building were said to be off duty when the hoodlums stormed the compound.
The gunmen, it was learnt, removed the mattresses and other beddings and rummaged through Dudafa’s study.
The hoodlums were said to have broken into the strong room, where they located a safe. They reportedly worked on the safe for hours, eventually breaking it with axes.
Although Dudafa’s aides feigned ignorance of the contents, it was gathered that the gunmen removed from the safe an unspecified amount of money.
One of the two night guards, who simply gave his name as Mohammed, said the hoodlums rode a Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV).
The security man said the other guard, who he identified simply as Ibrahim, was away to buy food when the gunmen came.
