Fake police officer, two others arrested in Anambra

The Anambra State Police Command has arrested 50-year-old Chidi Ekwesiri from Umunya, Oyi Local Government Area, along with two other individuals, for allegedly terrorizing innocent residents of the state.

In a statement released on Wednesday, the police spokesperson, SP Tochukwu Ikenga, confirmed that one automatic pump-action gun and a police uniform were recovered from the suspects.

Ikenga stated, “In the early hours of Wednesday, December 18, 2024, operatives from the Special Anti-Cultism Squad of the Nigerian Police in Enugwu-Ukwu, Njikoka Local Government Area, arrested Chidi Ekwesiri, aged 50, from Umunya, Oyi LGA, along with two others.”

“They also recovered one automatic pump action gun and a Police uniform from the suspects.

“The operatives spotted the suspect while on surveillance patrol along the Onitsha-Enugu Expressway by UNIZIK Temp Site.

“During interrogations, the suspect claimed to be a Sergeant and a serving member of the Nigeria Police Force in Lagos, but later denied his earlier claim.

“He also confessed that the gun was given to him by a yet to be identified man at Ukpo.

“Further information from the suspect led to the arrest of two other suspects who are currently undergoing Police interrogation.”

Ikenga added that the Commissioner of Police in the state, CP Nnaghe Itam, has directed the immediate transfer of the case to the State Criminal Investigation Department, Awka for a comprehensive investigation.

He said the suspects will be charged to Court on conclusion of the investigations.
