”The arrests followed a report received on August 25, 2025, from a student of the Akwa Ibom State Polytechnic, Ikot Osurua, that he was ambushed and attacked with dangerous weapons along Ikot Osurua by members of a proscribed cult group known as the Ku Klux Klans Confraternity.

”The victim, who had reportedly renounced his membership of the group, was left unconscious with severe injuries. The assailants also stole his Redmi 13C Android phone and ₦41,000 in cash.

”Acting on the report, police gathered intelligence and launched an operation that led to the arrest of the seven suspects.”

She listed the suspects to include Douglas Ambe Esikhene, Stephen Asukwo Effiong, and Saviour Dany Akpan.

Others include Emmanuel Friday Umoh, Augustine Uduak Okon, Mary Ating Asukwo and Itohowo Christopher Uko.

The command’s spokesperson said during a search of their hideout, one locally made short gun, seven live cartridges, one fresh human skull, a bottle containing a substance suspected to be black oil, and a bottle of Guyanese oil, believed to be for ritualistic purposes, were recovered

She disclosed further that the command had commenced an investigation into the incident, adding that efforts have also been intensified to apprehend other members of the gang and make more recoveries.
