He said the feat was achieved through a joint patrol team of its personnel, the army and local vigilantes, who neutralised the leader of a kidnapping and robbery gang operating in the area.

“This achievement occurred on Friday, March 14, at about 10:00pm when security operatives tracked down the suspect, known as Honour.

“He is a well-known armed robber and kidnapper who had been on the command’s wanted list for multiple offences.

“He was intercepted near the Akwanga Central Mosque while riding a motorcycle and was fatally shot while attempting to evade arrest,” Nansel said.

According to the police spokesman, items recovered during a search operation included one Beretta pistol without a bridge number and 12 rounds of 9mm live ammunition.

The PPRO added that one of his accomplices managed to escape with gunshot wounds, while a manhunt is currently underway to apprehend the fleeing suspect.

He said that the deceased had been evacuated to the Akwanga General Hospital Mortuary for post-mortem examination.

Nansel said that Shetima Jauro-Mohammed, Commissioner of Police commended the operatives for their professional conduct and effective collaboration.

He urged them to maintain the momentum in the ongoing fight against criminal elements in the state.

The spokesman therefore, reiterated the command’s commitment to maintaining law and order and warned all criminals to desist from their nefarious activities or face decisive action. (NAN).
