According to him, the command had commenced an investigation to unravel the cause of the attack.

Meanwhile, this said attack on Kogi LG Offices is coming after the Islamic State-backed faction of Boko Haram, the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), had claimed responsibility for a car bomb explosion that killed about four people and injured several others in the Okene Local Government Area of Kogi State in January.
