The Nigeria Police Force said it has recorded a major operational success after raiding criminal hideouts and dismantling a terrorist group in Nguru, Aboh Mbaise LGA, Imo State, recovering two General Purpose Machine Guns (GPMGs), one AK-47 rifle, a pump-action shotgun, 3,115 rounds of ammunition, surveillance drones, and other incriminating items.
A press statement from the desk of the Public Relations Officer of the Force Headquarters, Abuja, DCP Anthony Placid Okon, stated that the operation is in line with the ongoing nationwide campaign to suppress violent extremism and dismantle organized criminal networks across the federation.
He hinted that the Imo State Police Command carried out the operation through intelligence-driven efforts based on information obtained from a confessional statement made by one Ebube Uchenna Maduakolam, also known as Ebube Virus, a suspected terrorist linked with IPOB.
The Force spokesperson revealed that the suspect was among three apprehended at the scene, who are currently in lawful custody, providing the Force with critical information pertaining to the group’s logistics networks, personnel structure, and planned operations.
“A thorough search of the enclave led to the recovery of two General Purpose Machine Guns (GPMGs), 3,115 rounds of GPMG ammunition, one AK-47 assault rifle, one pump-action shotgun, multiple units of surveillance drones, and Biafra currency in various denominations.
“The Inspector-General of Police has commended the operatives of the command for their courage, professional conduct, and tactical precision in executing the operation. The IGP noted that the recovery of this substantial arsenal significantly degrades the operational capacity of the extremist network in the South-East region and represents a decisive blow against their campaign of terror,” the statement added.
Okon reiterated that the Nigeria Police Force is determined in its mandate to uphold the rule of law and guarantee the safety of every Nigerian citizen.
