The assailants left 40 persons dead and over 80 others injured in the attack.
“We have recovered the last vehicle they used in the operation and we have made some arrests. We have recovered some vital things which we are working on.
“We are not stopping until we get to the root of this and I assure that the perpetrators and their sponsors will be brought to book,’’ state commander of Amotekun, Adetunji Adeleye, said.
He made the declaration while parading 71 suspected criminals before journalists in Akure on Thursday.
