The Delta state police command says it has arrested two suspects involved in the shooting at Abraka Market.
On Friday, three gunmen shot into the market, where traders were still transacting business, allegedly killing four persons, who are reported to be non-natives.
In a statement issued on Saturday, Zanna Mohammed Ibrahim, the state police commissioner, said the suspects are Abraham Ndudi ‘m’, 24 years old, from Kwale, and Okereke Ifeanyi ‘m’, 21 years old, from Kwale in Delta.
He said they hid in the ceiling of a major hotel in Abraka at the time of their arrest.

He said investigation was in progress, and that the police were on the trail of the third suspect.
Ibrahim urged the non-natives and natives of the state not to panic or to contemplate any reprisal action because the law would take its course.
