Speaking on JoyFM’s Super Morning Show on Friday, the Ada District Police Commander, DSP Andreas Kordzo Mifetu stated that although investigations have begun, no arrests have been made yet.

“We will appeal to the people of Ada that the police will need their cooperation and their assistance in bringing closure to this.

"Because the incident happened in broad daylight and people might have seen them, they might have identified them. So we are appealing that anyone with information about the identity of these people to contact the police for arrests to be made,” he added.

The management of Radio Ada 93.3 FM on Thursday, January 13, 2022, stated that some unidentified thugs attacked the station.
