Ike, who was also the Publicity Secretary of Association of Community Pharmacists of Nigeria (ACPN), was murdered in his shop on June 19 by the suspects who took away his car and mobile telephone.
The police also recovered the mobile telephone and the vehicle of the deceased from suspects.
FCT police spokesman Anjuguri Manzah, who made the disclosure in a statement, said the suspects were arrested by operatives of the Command Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), in Lafia Nasarawa State and Jos, Plateau State, respectively.
He gave the names of the suspects as Danbala Buba, 42, Isah Rilwanu, 24, and Abdulhamid Nasir, 35, all male – while the leader of the gang is still at large.
