The Anambra State Police command yesterday discovered another private armoury this time at Umuihefula, Umuaku village in Uli, Ihiala Local Government Area. This is barely two weeks after a combined team of Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS) operatives in state and the Inspector-General of Police (IGP’s) Special Task Force on heinous crimes recorded a major breakthrough in the fight against kidnappers and armed robbers.

Yesterday’s operation which was carried out by the same SARS under the leadership James Nwafor (SP), saw the policemen arresting one of the kingpins, Emeka Ezekude in whose custody was the arms and ammunition. However, another suspect whose name was given as Sunday Nwachukwu from Ezumeri Oraifite in Ekwusigo Local Government Area was said to be on the run.

A combined team of SARS on a tip-off was said to have cordoned off the home of the suspect, Emeka Ezekude, where two AK47 rifles, one type 06 rifle, one rocket grenade, 27 AK47 magazines, three rocket propellers, 770 rounds of 7.62 mm live ammunition and nine chains used to lock up kidnap victims were recovered. Daily Sun gathered that Ezekude’s arrest was made possible due to information supplied by his relations.

The rifles allegedly owned by Sunday Nwachukwu were kept in the custody of Emeka, who allegedly escaped when the police arrived but was later arrested as he went to one of the new generation banks to withdraw money possibly to enable him to escape. The arms and ammunition, according to the police, were like the Oraifite incident, recovered from two giant plastic drums buried in the hideout of the suspect at Uli.

The state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Mr. Ralphael Uzoigwe, confirmed the arrest. He said effort was being made to track down Sunday from Ezumeri-Oraifite in Ekwusigo Local Government Area. Also commenting, a senior Police officer who spoke in confidence told newsmen that God has indeed come to the rescue of the command and taken control of affairs.

On September 3, 2012 when Ifedike (Ofeakwu) was arrested at his home in Ifite Oraifite, the Police recovered from his underground armoury 27 AK47 riffles, one K2 rifle, two type-06 rifles, one GPMG, one rocket launcher, 17 rockets, six pump action guns, three Dane guns, one Berretta pistol and 13 rocket grenades.

They also recovered from Ifedike who allegedly confessed having introduced kidnapping in the South-East 12,800 rounds of Ak47 live ammunition, 530 rounds of LAR ammunition, 95 rounds of GPMG live ammunition, 1, 000 rounds of K2 live ammunition and 143 magazines, totaling 14, 425 rounds of live ammunition, just as they recovered nine chains they used to lock victims.

"....Daily Sun gathered that Ezekude’s arrest was made possible due to information supplied by his relations...."

^^^Hehehehe

Love it! Lesson learnt: don't bring your 'fuc/k up' to the attention of your relatives if you're Igbo .

Just hope this is no way connected to terrorism.

They must be working hard towards xmas.
hmm

Nigeria is fast becoming den of criminals.

omiobo: Nigeria is fast becoming den of criminals.

grammar !!!!!

Daily Sun gathered that Ezekude’s arrest was made possible due to information supplied by his relations.

His relations should get a genuine National Honours Award. GEJ don't wait for next year's list. Invite them to Villa now and give them!
Meanwhile Ezekude is tried and sent for life sentence. This will win the heart of Nigerians who will know that the government cares.

Onitsha the field- All sorrunding towns the place to keep weapons. If they use the Abia formula( hit hard at relatives both close and distance) they will be supriced @ what revelations they will witness.

wish northern elders will be thinking this in resolving boko rada than crying victim! They should be hanged without trial

mmmustapha: Rubbers,kidnappers,hire killers,snipers,weapons distributors,oil bunkers southerners u dey make me

Wish your brothers will give you out to JTF. Boko Hamus!

More will be discovered.
I know them very well. Anamabra race, who according to chino11, are different from other Igbos. I agree with him.
They are the problems of the Igbo Race.
They are arrogant and rude and proud.

Most of their so called elites were criminals who killed other people just to acquire money

John Nebolisa, Arusi Awkuzu - A notorious scammer-419 with traditional leader status.

Eddy Norgu - killed by bakassi after discovering numerous human skulls in his house.

Ezego of Ihiala - a notorius criminal who died mysteriously.

Arusi Okija - a scamming shrine, mounted in the forest to scam people. It has its agents who killed for it.

Delico Nwamama - a notorious phd holder in armed robbery.
The 'take it all' mentality has found its way into their govt house. Oil was discovered in their state and the neighboring states of Kogi and Enugu. They rushed and built a refinery. Jumped across borders to dig into other people's territories as if building a refinery first gives you the power to take other people's properties.
Apart from otokoto and clifford orji who acted decades ago, where else in Igboland can you come up with thousands of killers, murderers, scammers, thieves, arms dealers.. Etc. None.

Where is that chino who called the Aneke twins, wawa bi.tches... I am back.

I can go on

That was just the republic of biafra millitary cantonment.

I hope it will not end there because I no trust our police

CrazyMan: I reserve my comment.

Ile-Ife:

^^^To be fair to them, this is exactly what's happening in Kano; the JTF has said it's information given by members of the public that has helped them deliver series of knock-out blows to the bokites there....like the one we heard of on monday.

What is happening, crime every where the end is really coming but be careful you are not condemed with these evildoers in hell fire

So all the weapon used by boko boyz are supplied by this igbo boyz.
