Notorious Gunman Arrested In Anambra

Chukwuma, a native of Awo, Ezinifite in Nnewi South, has been linked to a number of attacks across the local government. The suspect has long been on the wanted list of the State’s Joint Security Forces.

A man present at the parade said Chukwuma (the suspect) is a known kidnapper responsible for the deaths of security officers and vigilantes in the state. He stated that the notorious kidnapper is one of the reasons Ezinifitte and Nnewi South were deemed dangerous.

He kidnapped a prominent man and collected N1.5 million before setting him free, but unfortunately for the man, he was dumped in a place where he broke his lungs, and has been under treatment since then. “JTF has visited his house and recovered guns and security uniforms which he used when he was a security man (he worked as a vigilante operative).

“He has been on the wanted list for a long time and has been one of the reasons Ezinifitte and Nnewi South were regarded as being highly unsafe. “We got a tip off last night and we moved in and apprehended him where he was hiding.”

“I was in Unubi camp, before I moved to Ezinifitte, before going to Agulezechukwu, where I stayed with other members,” Chukwuma admitted. Later, I left the group and escaped to be on my own.”
