The Police Command in Kogi has arrested six suspects in connection with the killing of Mrs Salome Abuh, at Ochadamu, Ofu Local Government Area (LGA) of the state, on Nov. 18.

The 60-year-old Salome Abuh, who was the PDP women leader of Ochadamu Ward in Ofu Local Government Area of the state, had her house set on fire, while she was inside, by political thugs allegedly belonging to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) last week Monday.
