“Soon after getting credible information about the heinous act, the police control room quickly alerted operations of the command and they immediately searched the entire state.
‘’As a result, the assailants, who tried to escape the eagle-eyed operatives, were subsequently apprehended along West End-Old Nekede Road, Owerri, ”the CP said.

According to Mr. Lakanu, the late Ndukwe was found in a pool of his own blood in a toilet in his residence at 18 Enuwa Street, Egbu, in the Owerri North Local Government Area.

He gave the names of the all-male suspects who later confessed to the crime as David Kwaguru, 30, from Sirwo in Langtang North Local Government Area of Plateau State; Friday Ayuba, 28, a native of Keyelda in Jos North Local Government Area of Plateau State and Francis Amos, 23, a native of Pingali in Langtang South Local Government Area    also in Plateau State.

The Imo police boss appealed to members of the public to be careful and circumspect in choosing the people they employed as security guards.

“Events have since proved that most security guards often turn against their masters by collaborating with criminals to deal with them,” the CP said.
