In a statement issued by the command’s spokesperson, Henry Okoye, it was reported that “Yesterday, operatives from the command’s Counter-Terrorism Unit thwarted an attack by suspected IPOB/ESN terrorists during a routine patrol along the Owerri/Aba Road, near Owerri Airport.”

The attackers, approximately ten in number and traveling in two vehicles, launched a violent assault but were effectively countered by the unit, displaying remarkable courage. During the ensuing gun battle, one suspect was neutralized, while the others fled with gunshot wounds, leaving behind their operational vehicle, an ash-colored Mercedes Jeep registered in Lagos State with the number AAA 101 GR.

The statement confirmed that no casualties or injuries were reported among the operatives. Following the incident, officers recovered an AK-47 rifle, 15 rounds of 7.62mm live ammunition, an IPOB/ESN flag, and the abandoned vehicle. A thorough search of the surrounding bushes is currently underway to locate the remaining suspects.

The state Commissioner of Police, Aboki Danjuma, urged the public, particularly medical professionals, to report any individuals seeking treatment for gunshot wounds to the nearest police station.

“The command remains dedicated to ensuring the safety of all citizens and will continue to address any threats to public peace in the state,” the statement emphasized.

In a separate incident, a 17-year-old female student from Imo State University, Jesse Chidebere, was arrested by the Orji Police Divisional Headquarters on Monday for falsely claiming her abduction and death, which reportedly caused “significant distress to her family and the university community,” according to the command’s spokesperson.

Kevin Solomon has been active in engaging local communities, earning trust through his hands-on approach and programs tailored to Ondo’s unique needs.

Speaking on behalf of the governor, Dr. Abdulkadir Muazu Meyere, Secretary to the Kaduna State Government, mentioned that the governor instructed him to collect credentials from those who had completed their tertiary education. “The Governor promised that some of them will receive start-up capital for trading, others will receive skills training, and some will be offered employment,” Meyere said.

The government will monitor the conduct of each child, extending these benefits based on good behavior. Contact details, including addresses, phone numbers, and next-of-kin information, were recorded for easy tracking and follow-up.

Upon release, each child underwent a medical examination and received psycho-social counseling, focusing on personal development and community contribution. Religious leaders from both Islamic and Christian communities also counseled the children, emphasizing the importance of faith and the dangers of negative influences.

Meyere explained that the children were provided with phones, as they had lost theirs during detention, and that “the Governor graciously granted each of them N100,000 as a measure of goodwill.”
