“The hoodlums who came in their numbers were however engaged in a gun duel by the joint security agencies which led to the arrest of the following suspects; Chukwuebuka offorji ‘Male’, Nicholas Ekwelem ‘Male’, Okwelem Paschal ‘Male’ and Onyekahi Enerenini ‘Male’.”

“However, one of the suspects sustained gunshot injury on his leg in the course of the melee. Meanwhile, operatives of the Command are presently on the trail of the fleeing suspects who are strongly believed to have escaped with gunshot injuries. Efforts are in progress to recover the arms of the group as well as other incriminating items.”
