A Joint Security Team comprising the Police, Military and other Security Agencies on 14th January 2025 by 12.30 pm successfully carried out an offensive operation against a suspected armed secessionist gang in Umugem road, Ufuma, Orumba North Local Government Area. The team neutralized five members of the armed group, while some others escaped with various degrees of bullet wounds.

During the operation, the security team razed down the criminal camp and recovered four undetonated improvised explosive devices (IED), two AK47 assault rifles, one pump action gun, and one 75-volt battery with other incriminating items.

The success of the operations is attributed to the collaboration and coordination among the various security agencies.

To this end, the Commissioner of Police CP Nnaghe Obono Itam seeks greater cooperation of the people in the area for a patriotic involvement to *take back the space* and deny these criminal elements the space they use to cause tension in the State.

Meanwhile, in another development, the Command expressed willingness to work with the victims of abduction/kidnap for necessary action, especially in the efforts of the Command to continue to deny these criminals the space to wreak havoc and to create a safer environment for citizens in the State.

The Command demonstrates this commitment in response to a publication in the Social media of the release of the two Reverend Sisters recently abducted along Ufuma Road, Orumba North Local Government and a video of an alleged escape of Mr Onyebuchi Okocha (popularly known as Onyeze Jesus) from a criminal hideout.

To this end, the Command while waiting for the victims to recuperate for possible debriefing by the investigating Officers assures improved security dominance and surveillance operations targeted to enhance safety across the state to deter criminal activities and ensure public safety.
