Expressing his resolve to root out criminal elements, Wike declared, “You said there are about two or three more persons to be arrested; let me put money on their heads. Wherever they are, send your men after them, I will give them N20 million, go and fish them out from wherever they are, use that money on their head. I want to see them dead or alive.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
