The DHQ had declared the suspects wanted less than 24 hours after the slain soldiers were buried at the National Military Cemetery, in Abuja on Wednesday.
The personnel, including a Commanding Officer, two Majors, one Captain and 13 soldiers were gruesomely killed while on a peace mission to quell the communal clash between Okuama and Okoloba communities, both in Delta and Bayelsa States respectively.
